Guys,
It FLIES!!!!
Got to the field today and did a few ground checks, test ran the motor - all good. Out to the circle, spinner flip on the K&B 40, away we go. The ship got off no trouble but the controls are a bit touchy. I had move the tail horn in one hole and just grabbed the first handle I had free, it had a wider line spacing than normal.
Well, all things considered, the first flight for the Yak-Yak in 6 years was a success. Wings appear level, engine run on the 11x5 was on the money, lap time on 60' C-C was 4.9 sec and the glide after the engine quit was flat no ballooning or diving. All up weight was 46 1/2 oz. Seems it is pretty close, I need to slow the controls and reduce the line spacing and it should be ready to get into the OT pattern for the Super Unlimited 52 event.
Best, DennisT
