Jan, I appreciate your details around the machine screws used for the aileron connectors (about 5:00 into the video) I wasn't quite sure how TH was expecting this to be done. I also used a dremel with a grinding bit to take off the squeezed metal around the threads, but I needed to use my big lighted magnifying glass to do so.
Hi! Yeah manuals dont talk about this step of build in detail... "cut it and youre done" is not the best approach in my opinion. There is no harm in using dremel or sand paper to take a care of the thread after cutting the screw. In general there is no such thing as using dremel too much :D
Hey, the XL is new! Not even in stock yet, so I am glad i could get one early! But you can preorder on Twisted Hobbys web page or wait few days till its available in the Europe too (not sure where are you from :-) ).
I mounted my battery on the bottom right side...CG is good...1800 just behind the landing gear ...does it matter top or bottom for the battery??? long as the CG is good???
Very good question!!! So, the "as long as CG is good" is usually ment as "the CG is good on one of the axes" - typically the front to back ballance. But you also know that if one of your wings is heavier (or you have too much of electronics on one side of the plane) the CG if you measure it left to fight will not be in the center of the airplane and you may experinece some roll tendencies when you pull elevator sharply (and so on). The more or less same applies for top to bottom CG which manifests itself in knife edge (mostly). Now my experience is that i find plnes to be more neutral with batteries above the fuselage - i did not test with the crack yak xl though so you may be absolutely ok with your battery position... But if the plane behaves weirdly in KE, try moving the battery around and you may find better position. And you may not... Sorry for the long answer! Have a nice Christmas!
@@jan_spatny thanks so much👍 mine took off perfect with a hand launch bit soon as I turned to the right ...it did roll and crashed 🥴😩..it's all fixed now I think I'll try the top across the middle this time 🤔👍🙏
I've always flown only ready to fly planes that requires only 10 minute to assemble with few screws (from FMS), and now I want to buy and build something like in your video from RC Factory, is it very very hard? I'm really afraid to mess up since I even messed up a little when I build the planes from FMS... what do you think? should I let someone professional build it for me? I feel like I want to try it myself but I'm afraid to mess up and ruin the plane
Crack yak is quite complex build (for a foamie) so you may be better off letting someone else build it for you. But still you can gain some building skills by building the RCFactory Mustang or nemessis. Those are fairly easy builds and super fun to fly too.
@@jan_spatny awesome thank you! Gonna have to order some and try it out! Also great video! You should add links under the description for the glues. I’m sure other people are wondering the same thing when they watch.
@@ThruJordansLens Thanks! btw the needle i use is normal orange 0,5x25mm injection needle, fixed on top of the CA bottle with heatshrink. If the CA hardens in it, just burn it out with lighter and you are good to go again. Without the needle you cant measure how much glue you are spilling where and the build will not be so clean.
Hi there, just got one of these babies. I'm very interested in the fact you're using CA in the build (as recommended by the manual). Would UHU Por, not be a better choice, due to its more flexible nature, and tendency not to crack when under stress?
Ahoj Honzo, jestli koukám dobře, máš také serva z originál setu. Trošku bojoju s tím, že nechodí úplně dobře. Hlavně když dojedou do středu, začnou se desně klepat. Všechny táhla jsem se pokusil uvolnit, aby se zlepšil chod. Jedno originál táhlo od směrovky jsem zkusil dokonce nahradit kulovými čepy. Zlepšilo se to, ale pořád to není ono. Nesetkal jsi se s tím prosím někdy? Díky moc!
Ahoj, to se bohužel stát může, jsou to levná serva, a tak se občas horší kus najde. Pokud se je nepodaří rozhýbat (chvilku kvrdlat na stole), nezbývá nic jinýho, než reklamace serva. Určitě prodejci pošli krátký video, reklamace je pak mnohem snazší a rychlejší.
@@jan_spatny Jo to bych mohl zkusit. Nejdriv rozhybat a pak zkusit kontaktovat prodejce pripadne. Uvidim no. Je to divny ale, tri ze ctyr... Co by mohla byt nejaka kvalitnejsi varianta? Dekuju!
Hi, I understand but making a video manual was not my intention. Personally i find it easier to scroll through pdf than to wait for a moment in the build video i was looking for. But your input may possibly be a good hint for the manufacturer!

Very good, I didn't even know the XL version was available!!! Good assemby, wish you nice flights!!

Skill & patience! Much respect & nice build. :-)
thank you!
DID you fly it with the 11x4.7 sf prop...🤔🤔🤔
yes, all the time. but i will switch to 12" APC 3D when its available in the czech republic
Did it fly good with the 11x4.7🤔 because I have one on mine and haven't flown it yet🥴 it calls for a 12🤯😊👍thanks for your fast response 👍
@@Dragonewiz You should have zero problems with the 11x4,7 SF ;-) check my flight video: ruclips.net/video/lImSKq3p4wM/видео.html
and how do it do...🤔🤔🤔

@@jan_spatny Ok thanks, and can I use only hot glue to build RCFactory planes without issues?
@@forit3061 use CA and activator spray. hot glue is heavy and you cant use it in tiny drops.
@@jan_spatny Thanks ok, so just about any super glue will work?
@@forit3061 thin or medium, stay away from thick 😉
Very nice model can I ask what glue are you using to put it together thank you
Mostly thin CA.
What types of glue are you using? What is the spray can for? Thanks.
thin CA and kicker in spray. Kicker makes the CA harden real quick!
@@jan_spatny awesome thank you! Gonna have to order some and try it out! Also great video! You should add links under the description for the glues. I’m sure other people are wondering the same thing when they watch.

Hey, i think uhu is ok on most foam-foam joints. i would not use it on carbon-foam, where you need the connection to be rigid
What are the gloves you're using there when handling the CA?
Latex medical gloves (non sterilized). They come in box of 100 pieces, cost about 5€ here in Europe. Should be available in any pharmacy.
motor angle?
According to the manufacturer/fuselage... I believe 0°/0°.
Nice build vid. We're did u get your CA in a can from and what is zip tied to the end of your dremel?
Thanks! The can is just activator spray. CA is in small bottles, I used KAVAN, but any quality CA will do. www.pelikandaniel.com/?sec=news&news=506
And about the dremel i am not sure what you mean? It is the standard 8220. Maybe you mean the metal loop that is used to hook it?
@@jan_spatny look at 9:46 in your vid. What is the back thing towards the very front or bottom of your Dremel. It is almost like a stand for it maybe?
@@jan_spatny ok kicker or activator makes sense but CA in a spray can would be even better lol
@@scottbaddley72 I am sorry but the video ends at 9:45 :D . Check the time stamp again pls.
What spinner is that at beginning of video?
Are these still available??
Of course!
When are we going to actually see a flight video?? Fantastic job on the build
Once my flights will look more like 3D than like crash compilation 😁 I hope to shoot few flights during the weekend.
@@jan_spatny Cool!
