Sukhois are here
The first production Sukhois are here. I have them in blue/white, blue/yellow, and tiger scheme.
I have them in SU-29 2 place canopy and SU-31 single place. Prices are on our web site.
I only have 15 left after I process the backorders.

RE: Sukhois are here
Tom,
Did you get the box size down enough to UPS this plane?
I have one of the Tiger scheme Su-31's plus the hardware kit on order.
Looking foward to building this plane

RE: Sukhois are here
Tom,
Any updates as to when the Sukhoi's will be shipping out?
Dying to get my hands on one to look at.
Haven't gotten my 58 yet anyway, so thats about all I can do for now.

RE: Sukhois are here
Possibly tomorrow, I'm just putting the finishing touches on the manual.
BTW I have 58s in stock if you are having trouble finding one.

Some have the star. As far as I know none have the checkerboard.
There are a few boxes that I have not yet opened which do not say "star" so they may just have stripes.

Tiger stripe Sukhoi SU-31 being shipped out to me today!
Thinking about pulling the ZDZ-60 off the Edge to use in this plane.
Got a new DA-50 sitting here that would go into the Edge.
Have HiTec 5955TG for rudder, 4-5945's for Ail. & Elv., and 2-425BB for engine controls.
Fromeco's 2400 mAh, Super Regulated Reliaswitch for flight power.
Air Wild twisted servo wires, and cable connectors.
Have the Wild Hare hareware kit coming with plane.
Will look over setup and decide what other equipment is needed when plane arrives.
I'll post pics when the plane arrives.

RE: Sukhois are here
Yes, you do.
FYI we flew the #1 production plane today. It flew great inspite of the fact that I almost killed it.
David McCutchen, my test pilot (shown in the photo) found out how it flies on one elevator when the other one came unplugged from the receiever.
FYI this one has a DA-50 in it. With 2 2100mah 6v Nimh battery packs mounted just behind the firewall it's still just a little tail heavy but flyable.
I believe the Evo 58 is the perfect engine for this plane. Proper weight, right size, gobs of power. The DA had plenty of power but since it needs more weight up front and the Evo is the same price, why not?
