Default Sure... why not. 2.7m indoor Sukhoi

At least no one can say that modelers, even on the FG, do not have diverse interests. Now this is a completely different take on things by Klaus. Seems he made this for pulic demos even at hockey arenas.

Sukhoi, 2.7m, approx 7lb

Wow,

That was worth the look thats for sure.

I really hope someone takes Klaus on board with this as its a killer setup. looks like more fun for the dollar than a lot of the others have available and for guys like me who dont really get too much of a kick out of small foamies this the ducks pajamas.

I really really need one of these.

I find it a little big and sluggish. I like the concept though and think a 2m version would be a lot better with the same power.

First off...
Klaus is the best ambassador of RC modeling our hobby has ever seen.
At the past few E-toc's I have had the chance to meet him, and talk for a while.
His has a true passion for flying model airplanes and his smiling performances are something that have to be seen. The guy is an amazing pilot and showman, as well as a true gentleman.


This plane is very cool... its usingv the indoor idea of "slower is better".. and I have never seen a big airplane flying any slower.

It looks like it could be a 32" indoor bird its so slow.

Way to go Klaus!!

As always.. you rule.
