Default Parkzone UM Sukhoi Su26XP Brushless

I've had the old original Sukhoi Su26m for a while and did a brushless conversion on it. That model was starting to get a bit battered so i went looking for new foam parts.. turns out it was cheaper to buy a new BnF complete model than it was just to buy the foam

Anyway, i got a nice new Su26XP and swapped over the brushless conversion into it. Here's one of it's first flight.. performance only being limited by my mediocre flying abilities.

Dont forget to set the vid to HD and full screen it....

That plane really zips right along and a 7 min flight too You were having way to much fun Take care and have fun, Chellie

Do not Judge, or you too will be Judged. For in the same way you Judge others, you will be Judged, and with the same measure you use, it will be measured to You.

Yeah, it is good fun specially in nice calm conditions like in the video. I usually fly the little Sukhoi before flying my larger models as it helps to get my reflexes prepared and my eye in.

The duration is quite impressive considering that the batteries are only 100mAh.. Possibly goes to show how much more efficient brushless motors are compared to brushed?

Very nice! That will definitely replace the my motor when it eventually dies.
