Note: We will be bringing a few painted kits back to the website. I have an apprentice painter starting out. The cost of the planes I paint are going up and will be a custom order by phone. The apprentice planes still look good and are inspected by me and the Boss aka Barb for quality and uniformity. Freehand hand air brushing is an art and one has to start at the beginning, i know I did!
This plane has been a hit everywhere it flies! It's great for both
those just learning to fly or 3D and the pro flyer.The Yak flies like
its' depron brother, but has the "bounce-ability" of EPP.This plane was
designed by Leadfeather from RCGroups, and is being made available
through WMPF with his permission. Be sure to check out the forum here and the build guide here .
All flat foamies now come with the trussing for the bottom included in the kit at no extra charge.
