I have one just about completed, installed the 215 radial engine from Moke. you can purchase one from Stuart Mackay in the UK, He will be very helpful. I think their is a USA dealer But I'm not sure. You will have to do alot of your one engineering on the kit as you will receive only a shell of fibreglass for the fuse and the wings

Awesome kit!
Airworld makes beautiful kits and the detail and fiberglass is firstclass. You will have to do a lot of engineering yourself since the instruction is next to nell and it's also in german.
I would have to say the kit's not for beginners but if you've been at this hobby for a while you shouldn't have too much problems figuring out the peices.
I bought mine off RCUniverse last year but had to put the project on hold until this winter. I got a DA100 for power instead of the Moki Radial. Good luck with yours you'll love this plane.

Hey Snobird-
Got any pictures to your project? What color scheme are you going to finish your plane with? Got any pointers or tricks that you want to share in building yours?

Awesome!
Thanks for the great feed back gang! :thumbup: do any of yall have any pics ? is the plane pretty big? how does it fly etc. ? I've been in this hobby for about 12 years now, have had MANY CG Utlimates and their Sukhoi, extra 300. I think the Ultimate and Sukhoi fly better then their 300 does.
Keep the great feed back coming guys!!! :thumbup: :thumbup:

I don't have any pictures yet, nowI'm in Florida and the plane is in Maine, so I will not paint it until spring, Ihave return the engine to Moki for some updates, I'm not sure a 100 is enought power. It's really is a large plane.

RE: Sukhoi 31 from Airworld anyone got this ?
I have one. Evrything is great exept the gear, that breaks easily. You shoul use vires, and strengthen it with carbone in the upper "knee".
I can see from german sites that some people use the ZDZ 160B2RV Champion - 160 ccm engine in this plane. I should fit in to the cowling. I my self have a MVVS 116 in the nose. It fits xactly in to the cowling, with a margin of 5 mm ower the spark plug caps. It is not fully broken in yet, so I do not know if it is possible to hover with it.
I have some picktures of it at http://home.online.no/~jaeioluf/rc/ clik on the link Airworld Suchoi in the menu. The text is in norwegian.
