Yak 54e

Ok, so UPS just delivered my Extreme Flight Yak 54e ARF this afternoon!   This is EF's electric version of some of their larger Yaks.  It has a 47" wingspan with 425 square inches of wing area and a weight of 35-40 oz.  The recommended motor is a Torque 2814T/820, 4 micro servos, and a 3S to 4S Lipo battery.  I am using the Scorpion S3020-16 motor with an APC 11x8e prop (1234 g thrust) and a 12x8e prop (1302 g thrust).  I have used the Scorpion motors in the past and like the power and cost of these motors.  I'll write more on Scorpion later.  The Hitec HS 65HB servos are the choice along with my Spektrum 6Xi radio and AR6100 receiver.  The final item is the 40A ESC (waiting for that to arrive).  

 It came shipped double boxed and in great shape.  The packaging was great and everything was secured in the box.  The ARF comes with printed instructions along with CD.  Everything looks great on first inspections with no wrinkles or broken items found.
