Su-34 Fullback Twin Vectored Thrust Jet, Blue Camo



Su-34 Fullback Twin Vectored Thrust Jet, Blue Camo

This is a BIG all molded foam jet with great detail and great performance. Two 64mm fans with two 3500 Kv Outrunner brushless motors and two 45 Amp brushless speed controllers power the big jet. Take offs from a smooth runway or short grass field are quick and the initial thrust will blast the jet nearly straight up.

The pilots in attendance at the 2009 Southeast Electric Flight Festival (SEFF) voted the Su-34 the "Best New Product" after watching the incredible flight performance of this cutting edge aircraft. Maneuvers that simply cannot be done with other jets are routine with the vectored thrust nozzles of the Su-34. The famous "Cobra Maneuver" can be flown as well as flips and tumbles that will amaze your flying buddies.

Each nozzle is individually controlled and is mixed with both elevator and aileron controls. A 7-channel computer radio (minimum) is a must. We show the step-by-step setup screens of how to program a Spektrum DX-7 with the mixing required. The jet is easy to fly and very solid in the air, however due to the setup, the model is best suited for the experienced to advanced RC pilot.

The Su-34 comes with a set of retractable landing gear with twin wheel trucks for the mains and steerable twin wheel nose gear. Each gear has its own adjustable servo for gear retraction. There are a total of 10 servos pre-installed in the jet: 2-elevator, 2-aileron, 2-vectored thrust, 3-gear retract, 1-steering. Additional items required: a 7 channel transmitter and receiver, and a battery charger for the included 4-cell lipo battery.

Assembly only takes about 1-2 hours; epoxy glue is included for gluing wing and tail parts to the fuselage. Landing gear is pre-installed as are all other servos and control surfaces. The included 4-cell 3000 mAh lipo battery pack provides about a 4-minute flight - but what an exciting 4 minutes! The Su-34 is also available in a Green Camo version.

Need information about the airframe only version…

Hi!
I we been thinking of buying the SU-34 fullback twin vectored thrust jet in the airframe only version.

Before I order this plane I need some additional information about the equipment needed to complete this airplane!

What size of motors does fit in the ducted fan units (maximum diameter of motor)?
How many watts can the standard ducted fan cope with?
I also need the maximum dimensions of the battery that will fit in the battery hatch?
Do you know the speed/strength of the 9g servos used in the ARF version?

It is highly appreciated if someone could answer these questions

Dear HL,

Thanks for another great looking product. Is this only available in blue right now? Is the green camo backordered? Don't make me buy both. Thanks.

I was just working on the conversion video to show how to take an existing 180 version and add the 360 unit. Pretty simple to do. We should have those here in December.

Are you doing anything to beef up the landing gear? I just ordered and received the blue version. I fly on a paved runway and the front gear snapped off on my second landing. it was a smooth landing and no one at the field could figure out why it broke. I understand that I am not the first to have this problem.

The gear is already beefed up from the original models. I've flown a couple of them off clunky grass and paved runways and haven't been able to break one yet. If It was a smooth landing and it broke, it's more likely that there was a flaw in the metal for that one.
