This is by far my best design to date. The fit and finish. The lines and the packaging. The YF-23 has been one of those models that is extremely difficult to not only design but fly and fly well. When I fly a design for the first time (maiden) and it flies like this did... its a winner. IMO there have been ONLY 2 RC YF23's that flew well. the banana hobby version from 8 years ago and mine. You wont see a more stunning looking jet fly at your field period. This thing has incredible presence when its flying.
Details:
The YF23 is 36" long and 24" wide and ONLY WEIGHS 1165g FLYING WEIGHT!!! this is the secret sauce. My YF23 is absolutely hand launchable. I refuse to release a plane that isnt. I want everyone to enjoy this not just pilots with access to runways.
Parts:
LW PLA active foaming is probably your best option

I recommend using any flight stabilizer. The YF23 is very pitch sensitive and not too sensitive on roll . You need a good battery. I recommend SMC 3600 thats the size and weight of a 3100
