Anyone know the roll rate (in degrees/second) of the full scale Mb 339? Got a link to the place u found it? I havent had any luck doing an internet search...found everything but the roll rate.

Take a look here:

I guess the answer is not very fast.

I would imagine the roll rate would be even slower with the big tip tanks on.

If you want to do radical 3D type aeros this is probably not your machine.

But if you want to do beautiful, smooth, elegant aerobatics ......................

Have to admit though, the climbing spin with the smoke on is very impressive for a jet aircraft! - John.

I've actually done the climbing roll to a spin with the smoke on with my SM 339. It really looks nice if not done too fast and agressive. The jet gets lost in the smoke at the top for a second or two. I saw them do that about 2 yrs ago and had to try to duplicate it.
