About the Yak 55SP 2.1m (83")
The 2.1m Yak 55SP flies like a pattern plane, but on top of this it has enormous 3D-capabili-
ties. It's bigger than one would think, and it feels much bigger than 2.1m span, which is due to
the deep chord of the wing. This also requires a powerful engine, and we found that it is defi-
nitely a larger plane than the 2.1m Extra. But that's not bad news, that's great news. A plane,
easy to store and transport, well powered with a 50cc engine, flying like its' 2.6m brothers. Just
like it.
It tracks great and doesn't need any knife edge mixes. The control authority can be perfectly
adjusted to everyones preference. It is the plane which can move you several classes up in
the IMAC scene because of its' unbelievably smooth and neutral characteristics. It does what
you want, not vice versa.
For 3D the large wing and the large control surfaces do the trick. The most impressive
maneouvers can be flown very easily. It feels light and large, agile and responsive. There is
nothing that the 2.1m Yak can't do. Moving batteries to shift the CG to your liking is easy
because the plane is not CG critical at all. It balances well right out of the box.
Landing speed is very slow, and it feels like on rails during the approach. The high landing
gear is not a disadvantage at all, it fits the touch down angle of attack perfecty and does not
tend to bounce.
There is no better 2.1m plane on the planet. That's what we at CARF Models are convinced of,
and we are ready to prove it to you and your fellow modellers....
