I noticed Air Wild's web site shows these planes are in stock. Has anyone received the production version? How do they look?

Mike,

Any updates?

crhammond · 07-23-2008, 08:03 PM

Yea - they are on sale for a crazy deal right now but it would be good to know more about it...

mike bodiford · 07-25-2008, 04:08 PM

I got my sukhoi in on july 16. I install Jr 8711 all around and installed a 3W 170 with canister. I had to make a custom header for the 170. and the set up is very thight to fit the bottom cowl, but I got it to fit. I will be posting a build thread on www.carolinaskydancers.com site so check it out. I have the aircraft ready to fly except for the radio set up .I will be using the new JR 12X which I will receive on July 28, 2008. Kirby's graphics will be sending the graphics next week.
The airplane arrived in a large wooden crate, and every part was in good shape. The quality is excellent. There is a few things I do not like,but over all it looks like it will be a great flyer. I will post video on the www.carolinaskydancers.com web site .
I will Test Fly on July 31 weather permitting.

Has anyone competed in IMAC with this plane? How precise are the snaps and down lines?

Thanks,

Steve

2walla · 09-08-2008, 10:01 PM

Ok, so who has finished one of these? What is the finished weight? Anyone weigh the bare plane?

sprice50 · 09-08-2008, 10:14 PM

looks nice

smokin · 09-08-2008, 10:20 PM

i'll be starting the assembly of mine tomorrow. i'll let ya'll know about the weights soon. i'll have a 3w 157 on reg muffs. i am using jr 8611a's and 3 hitec 7955's on the rudder.

vsnap · 09-09-2008, 08:51 AM

Smokin wasted all that time playin at the Ohio Huckfest..He coulda had it done by now... Like we said Jerry likes a good product so this should be no different. It was good talkin to you over the weekend and hope it flies as good as it looks.

Heck if I had the $$$ I would have one here myself since I don't bring in a plane this size..Let me tell you, you will not get more quality parts and accessories for a model this size at a price like this no how no way... I know I bring this stuff in myself, I know Jerry likes the highest quality for his products to have the airwild name...

2walla · 09-10-2008, 02:40 AM

Have to agree, the hardware included is first rate. But I would like to know the finished weight. Most planes this size seem to come in well over 40 lbs. Claimed is 38? From the pics it looks like it is built pretty light.. Would like to know what some of the finished planes have actually come in at.

2walla · 09-25-2008, 01:28 AM

What is the weight going to look like on this thing?? Is the claimed 38 lb close???
