Assembling the Yak-54's factory-built components takes as little as 20-
25 hours — amazing for a model of this size. And for years after any
Great Planes model is introduced, replacement parts remain available
so you can keep your model in peak flying form.
The Yak-54 offers an ideal balance of low weight and high structural
integrity, both essential for performing high-stress 3D maneuvers.
The turtle deck is a good example — it's constructed of a precisely
sculpted foam shell that's reinforced with balsa sheeting.
The Yak-54 excels at traditional sport flying as well as demanding,
IMAC contest-worthy aerobatics. All of the control surfaces are
oversized to allow for aggressive 3D maneuvering. Control linkages
are short, direct and dependable.
The 25% Yak-54's large dimensions make is easy to track in the air,
while also recreating the exciting performance of the original
full-size aerobat; the distinctive trim scheme aids in orientation.
An ideal glow engine match is the O.S. 1.60 FX 2 stroke, which has also
been successfully tested in the model. It helps maximize the model's
potential by keeping weight low while supplying excellent power.
For gasoline power, Great Planes gives the Fuji-Imvac BT-43EI the
“thumbs up”. It has been extensively tested in the Yak-54 and passed
with flying colors. The engine's Electronic Ignition System offers easy
starts and reduces weight and vibration.
The Yak-54's tail gangs two rudder servos, which increase control
precision. It's one of numerous design elements that combine to give
this model the ability to execute any current 3D maneuver to perfection.
This Yak-54 is engineered to perform IMAC competition maneuvers
with judge-pleasing precision and grace. Stable slow speed flight
characteristics also make it a good choice for fliers moving up from
smaller models like the .46-size U-Can-Do 3D.
The wing panels slide onto an aluminum joiner tube for easy
transportation and easy attachment at the field.
Removing the canopy provides easy access to the on board radio gear,
fuel tank and the thumb screws used to secure the wing panels.
The aluminum landing gear offers smooth contours that perfectly
complement the model's scale looks — and provides the strength
and reliability needed for confident touchdowns.
The fiberglass cowl and wheel pants — painted to match the surrounding
Top Flite® MonoKote® trim scheme — add to the Yak-54's scale-like
looks. Great Planes does the work...but you enjoy all the compliments!
