Summary
Hello SU-27 fans,
I've read and re-read the "AKM SU-27 Does Look Good" thread on RCU several times and it inspired me to build one of my own. I'm a builder at heart who sometimes flies (to test out the build) and like my handle implies, I tend to heavily "mod" every kit I build. Most of the time just for the coolness factor. Since I'm modding the original kit so much, I started my own thread. For this kit I plan to make three main mods*:
1. Full flying stab/ailerators
2. Movable L.E. flaps
3. A Speed brake
* and other scale resembling mods here and there
I understand that these mods are not needed and will/may degrade the performance a little, but the coolness factor far outweighs that[8D]. The engine will be a Jett 90L of course.
The Kit
The kit is sold by [link=http://www.ak-models.com]www.ak-models.com[/link]. It's laser cut (the parts actually fit together) and for $124.00 you can't beat the price!
Covering Design
Lastly, this will be my covering design. It's a MIG-29, but it is absolutely beautiful.
