I would stay well clear of the Carbon Z Yak unless you have alot of experience. I have one and it flies absolutely brilliantly. It's easy to control and does any manoevre with ease but it is a pig to land nicely. You need to fly it in under power and not slow it down too much cause at about 3 feet off the ground it will throw itself at the ground if you don't have enough speed and it's not light. Coming in under power means once its touched down nicely it will shoot past and keep going. The temptation is to come in slower and that's when the problems arise. I'm not a beginner, I have 30 years experience and am a club trainer so have flown just about everything and the yak is definitely not a beginners model when it comes to landing.
