If I can sell my GP Yak 54, this will be my next plane for sure.

Re: Hangar 9 89" Carden Edition Yak 54

Yup, she's pretty. I may sell my EF 88" Yak and get this one!! I would probably lean towards a Brillelli 60cc or the MVVS 58 for good 3D. The DL50 can hover my Yak, but more power in the bag would be nice. Plus, my Yak needs nose weight to properly balance anyway!!

Saw it at Toledo this year.

Looked very nice and well built.

Naturally, since it was the show model, it had perfect covering too.

Re: Hangar 9 89" Carden Edition Yak 54

Yes, it look good, I will have to sell some stuff anyway, not in a rush to get it. Anyway. I will put a DL50 for sure, I like that engine., As for muffler , would like to see if I can find a canister that fit in that tunel for that particular motor. Any idea?

DA sells two MTW 75 cannister for 50cc engines. One is shorter and fatter, 70mm dia, the other is longer and skinnier, 55mm dia. If I remember correctly the skinnier one goes by the part number MTW75K but check with DA for sure.

So far every Yak on the market has required a "0", (zero), drop header so I would imagine this one would be the same but again check with DA. Go with a flex header it offers a little bit of leaway when aligning everything up.

Re: Hangar 9 89" Carden Edition Yak 54

This plane will replace my QQ yak 54 when the time comes!! With the almighty 3W 56 twin up front it'll be a perfect match!..will see about running a single canister, splicing the headers into one!
