| What the Pro says! The Art-Tech Su27 Twin 64mm is an Incredibly complete package. Includes five minute epoxy, a screwdriver...EVERYTHING. Only 8AA batteries are needed to complete it. Construction takes about thirty minutes, and the instructions are excellent and complete. Quality of construction is very good, no problems at all. The decorations and paint job are exceptional, the plane is VERY colorful and attractive. In the air...takeoffs require about 75 feet. I don't think it will get off grass, I would not even try it. It needs a smooth surface like pavement. I don't think hand launching it over grass without the landing gear would be a problem, but the bottom intakes are a little fragile, I worry about damaging them on landing. The plane was designed to fly from a runway, so that's where mine is staying. Power is decent. In spite of some dumb posts on some interenet sites, it's not a dog at all, it flies just fine on the provided power system. Top speed is maybe 55mph, pretty typical for a ready to fly foamie jet. No speed demon, but just fine. It will loop easily from level flight. The roll rate is tremendous, you might want to tone it down. Landings are very, very easy. All around, it's a very easy plane to fly, a good first jet. The electronics included have all been fine, including the stock battery, the charger included is great, the receiver is a dual conversion FM type, the transmitter is decent quality. Good value for the money, a very nice flyer, looks great in the air. I am very pleased. I also saw that some people said that the videos posted online of this plane must have been doctored, that that could not have been a stock power system in the video, etc... Baloney. Mine flies just like that. It flies very well. Don't beleive all the "experts" who post on the internet and say you have to modify this or that...the plane is very well thought out and flies just fine right out of the box. You can upgrade it with more power if you like, no problem, but let nobody say the designers did not do their homework, or that the plane cannot fly, as somebody put a lot of time into this model, and it flies very well, and it looks really great in the air, and it's very easy to fly.

Designed in the late 1960s as a high performance fighter with a fly-by-wire control system, and with the ability to carry up to 10 AAMs, the highly maneuverable Su-27 was one of the most opposing fighters ever built at the time. The first 'Flanker-A' prototypes flew on May 20, 1977 and entered service as the 'Flanker-B' in 1984. The 'Flanker' has seen a number of aerodynamic changes since, and exists in a variety of forms today. The Su-27IB, or Su-34 designation, is a long range attack variant with side-by-side seating for two. The Su-27UB 'Flanker-C', or Su-30 designation, is a tandem two-seat long range interceptor and trainer. A navalized version called the Su-27K 'Flanker-D', designated Su-33, was designed in 1992 for deployment on Russian aircraft carriers. It has folded wings, retractable flight refueling probe, arrester hook, strengthened landing gear, and moving canard fore planes. Next generation 'Flanker' derivatives include the Su-35 and the thrust-vector controlled Su-37, both vastly more enhanced then the Su-27, with canard fore planes and the ability to carry up to 11 and 14 external stores, respectively.
