6 MONTHS in the MAKING: DIY RC Czech Mate Transformation & Flight

Here is the 6-month journey transforming the Hobbyking RC Yak-11 into Czech Mate all in one place. While it wasn't technically a continuous 6 months of work (there was a move in the middle of it), this project was quite the undertaking and the final result, both in looks and flying, made it absolutely worth it!

This DIY RC Czech Mate transformation video shows the whole process from start to finish and wraps up with the maiden flight. I hope you enjoyed following along on the project and feel free to leave any questions or comments below! #scalemodel #rcplane #racer
