55" BAF YAK-54 from DWFoamies

I want to get a 55" BAF Yak 54 from DWFoamies for some large scale park flying. Here is some good video of a great Tiger paint scheme BAF. Can get one for around $100 from RC Foam, too. Like the torque rod controls and I think this would be a great way of doing all my larger flat foamies in the future. Looks like you want about a 40A ESC and 3S1P 2200mAh lipo. Flying weight looks like about 36oz, AUW.

There is a great build thread here on RCGroups.com. I'm pretty sure the Turnigy 35-42C 1100kv motor from Hobby City that I got to put on my Typhoon would work on this great, along with the 40A ESC I have for it. Then a Neutron 6ch Hitec Rx and hopefully the HS-81's would work ok (though the guys building it don't seem to think the HS-81's are strong enough). I WANT to build this plane...hummm.

On a semi-unrelated note, check out this amazing Red Bull Pylon race video
