Title: Russian Mikoyan-Gurevich Mig-17 EDF jet Post by: DominicM on August 01, 2019, 12:43:03 PM The latest large scale EDF jet from Avios. Features a howling 90mm ducted fan system that pushes it along at good speed, retracting landing gear with gear separately sequenced gear doors, an air brake and LED light system. Needs a 6S5000 to 6000 pack to fly. Take off and landing were very easy and in between it performed very nice slow scale aerobatics. Use of the rudder was mandatory in the turns especially in the wind I flew in. Great fun !

Should have been an awesome sight too. Eh, OK. But practically impossible to film because the cycle takes several seconds. The inner gear doors have to open, then the gear drop, then the inner gear doors close. You think I should do a full circuit and fly by at slow speed so can show that?! Maybe next time. |
