Hi Falcon, I love my Sukhoi. You can check it out on page 16 in the Giant Scale Forum, it is about the 5th one down titled, "H9 Sukhoi BME 105 report with pics." It balances a 1/2" behand the wing tube with no added weight. It does 3D very well, but the only problem it seems to have is that it does rock the wings and harriers. I haven't spent any time trying to solve the problem, McConville gives some possible solutions that I have never yet tried. It is very solid in the IMAC manuvers. I went to my first IMAC contest in Molalla, OR last week and won the Sportsman Class. The DA Engine does have more power, but if I put the DA in my Sukhoi my 24 lb. airplane would be 25-1/2 lbs. and I don't think it would fly as well. The BME gives it unlimited verticle and pulls strong out of a hover. It is a great combination and with the price of the Sukhoi it is a good bargain. Big Bob Knudsen
