Default RE: AKM SU-27 Flanker-Does Look Good

could not make it to the field to fly today.... sucks!

For the last 17 years I have been using a Futaba 9VHP (Helicopter) Radio that has been glitch free since My Father bought for me in 1988! I got back into R/C about 2 years ago... I mostly used to fly helicopters.. I sent some pics.. taken some time in 1998.

Anyway, I just disabled all the Helicopter functions and the radio works fantastic as an airplane radio.... I just do not have the airplane mixing functions like flaperons. One of these days I really need to get a current airplane radio!

The Flanker has all y-harnesses set up for both ELEVATOR & AILERONS.

That is the really superior things about this plane... It does not need any of the fancy electronic mixing stuff... flys fantastic without it!!
