Bringing this thread back from the dead. I still have not flown mine since my last post here. Having programmed flaperons and tailerons, I have yet to actually try it to see if it will take off from my grass field. I won't get a chance till next spring now. A friend wants to buy it before then and I'm on the verge of letting it go unless I decide to convert it to 8s in hopes of getting a bit more push to get off the grass. I have managed to take off from a geotex runway but it flies very sluggish and seems underpowered (and I've got the so called "high speed" version). Like the 90mm Yak 130, this is still a very heavy plane for what powers it. 8s also presents some drawbacks in that I'd need big 4s batteries to gang up and even then, flight time won't be impressive. What kinds of 8s systems are people running in this plane?
I've also been considering getting the 70mm F-16 V2 on 6s. Based on the comparison to my 70mm Yak 130 on 6s, I predict it would have a similar kind of punch and would give a more enjoyable experience.
