Due to the Vanderbuilt graphics, I asked Dave B to check with Mark Vandervelden and he has confirmed it is an Xtech Yak. This is not a problem as their stuff is decent, it's quite possible that it was copied from the GP model though, you know what the Chinese are like!

Roto engines get quite good reviews. Only downside to most is the weight. Heavier than the DLE by, from memory, 3 or 400 gms. Other differences are Roto is beam mount and DLE standoff mounted.

I have had quite a few flights on the Xtech Yak and it flies really well

If you decide to go this route i dont think you will be disappointed :)

Hi all

Thanks for your help and guidence, I am going to have a look and will probably go for it.
I think it will be ideal as a starting point and can upgrade the engine if neaded in the future

Xtech or Gp no matter it will do me proud, if it was good enough for Frank (bless him) it's good enough for me

:) :)

Simon - Looks a real bargain, Ideal entry package into petrol.
I thought it would not be long till you were burning petrol in the air rather than on the track.

I'm pleased to say that WMAC now has a new Petrol Head. My thanks to Simon for making one more purchase from Franks estate while retaining ownership within the club.
