3DHS Yak 55 91" - vibration issue

[Patto]

I don't think there are many of these out there. For 3D mayhem and tumbling, I think you'll like it. For precision flying.. Meh.

As far as the build goes, I found that taking the cowl on and off was a major pain. The wheel pants did not stay on long. I'd recommend completely re-doing the mounting method on both.

Also, it's likely to be tail-heavy, so plan for that.

I've used a DA 60 and a DLE 55 on mine. The 55 is enough power, but the 60 is worth the extra $$ if you really care about having that extra punch.

Oh, and use triangle stock everywhere you can in the engine box.

thanks Patto, will take it all on board, going with an EME60 as I have one sitting on the shelf, will plan for a light setup and see how I go, took note of your vibration issues and the fix you made.
