Hope it runs good for ya! If it does it will be a great combo.

Anything from the zdz80 up is a good combo for it.

I have it on great authority that you will be very disappointed in the 3W.....

John, I was about to order the ZDZ until I watched another Sukhoi fly with the 3W on-DAM that thing had vertical and then some. I had second thoughts about having the carb inside the fuse and gasoline getting in there with the ZDZ. The 3W I saw fly worked perfectly, I am aware of some prior ign. problems, but the guy who owns our LHS is an expert, and he owns both the 3w106/sukhoi, and a 3w150/ultimate, and he's got the fix for that-so

It should be here on friday


But it DID dent the heck out of my model budget for the month

Also, got some custom wheels from Glennis(scale copy of the "cleveland" hubs)-not gonna put the pants on it/the real Sukhoi doesn't have them on.

Thats cool, My personal choice is a DA100, all but a couple 3W's dont run, or run bad in my area..

Good luck.
