Thefull-scale SU-26 is a very potent single-seat aerobatic aircraftconsidered by many as one of the best acrobatic planes in the world.The Sukhoi is famously known for its acrobatic prowess.
Sukhoishave emerged as a family of superior aerobatic airplanes, allowingpilots to use them for world-class aerobatics competitions andexhibition shows. The majority of international contestants enterunlimited aerobatics competitions with Sukhoi airplanes, and numerouscompetitors have captured international aerobatic championships.Characterized by its round cowl, the Sukhoi demonstrates superioracceleration and rate-of-climb performance, excellent controllability,high level of permissible g-loads, an all-round field of view from thecockpit and unsurpassed structural integrity.
TheHangar 9 Sukhoi SU-26MM is capable of a limitless display of extreme 3Daerobatics. Designed by world-class competition pilot and designer MikeMcConville, the new Sukhoi SU-26MM is constructed from durable,lightweight balsa and plywood and covered with a vibrant UltraCote®trim scheme which gives it an electric fierce look .
What setsthis world-class scale aerobatic plane apart is the completelyoptimized design that makes this a true precision and 3D aerobaticperformer. With numerous tweaks to the entire design, the 97-inch, 85ccSU-26MM masters unsurpassed precision maneuvers and excellent visualpresentation. Strong rudder authority provides extreme yaw, while theabsence of rudder coupling means virtually no mixing is needed for thismodel. The Sukhoi has low wing loading and also has exceptional aileronauthority at all speedsenabling the plane to roll fast even in extreme3D high alpha. Using an 85cc gas engine, the SU-26MM is a high-poweredscale aerobatic performer. And, due to its lightweight engineering,only one high-torque servo per aileron whereas most models this sizerequire two.
Thelevel of completion of the Sukhoi SU-26MM ARF is beyond comparison inthe giant-scale market. Most of the high-quality Hangar 9 giant-scalehardware is included, and even installed, equaling a great assemblytime savings for the modeler. The kit comes highly prefabricated withthe fuel tank, hinges and control horns installed and hinge linessealed, so you don't have to wait long to get flying.
