Twin vectored thrust jet - add your electronics and servos
This is a BIG all molded foam jet with great detail and great performance. Includes Two 64mm fans, two vectored thrust nozzles, retractable landing gear set. The pilots in attendance at the
2009 Southeast Electric Flight Festival (SEFF) voted the Su-34 the
"Best New Product" after watching the incredible flight performance of this cutting edge aircraft.
Maneuvers that simply cannot be done with other jets are routine with the vectored thrust nozzles of the Su-34. The famous "Cobra Maneuver" can be flown as well as flips and tumbles that will amaze your flying buddies. Each nozzle is individually controlled and is mixed with both elevator and aileron controls.A 7-channel computer radio (minimum) is a must. We show the step-by-step setup screens of how to program a Spektrum DX-7 with the mixing required.
The jet is easy to fly and very solid in the air, however due to the setup the model is best suited to the experienced to advanced pilot. The airframe only version includes the instructions for the receiver ready version that includes CG and control throw recommendations but does not take you step-by-step through the installation of servos, motors, esc's. The airframe only version should only be attempted by experienced modelers.
The Su-34 Airframe Only comes with a set of retractable landing gear with twin wheel trucks for the mains and steerable twin wheel nose gear. Each gear requires its own servo for gear retraction and the nose gear requires an additonal servo for steering. Aircraft requires a total of 10 mini servos: 2-elevator, 2-aileron, 2-vectored thrust, 3-gear retract, 1-steering. An
Su-34 Fullback Almost-Ready-To-Fly (ARF) version is also available.
