This model was designed specifically for two Littlescreamers Park Jet motors so it’s sized slightly larger than my other park jets, with 290 sq in wing area instead of 250 sq in. This motor setup provide fantastic performance--top speed in the neighborhood of 80 mph and 1.5:1 thrust-to-weight ratio for unlimited vertical. Plus the counter-rotating props cancel out prop torque, resulting in very smooth launches and more jet-like handling qualities.
Construction methods are very similar to the rest of my park jet designs. Although it's a bit more complicated than the F-15 and F-18 park jets, it's less complicated than the F-14 and F-22 park jets. Overall I think the build is pretty simple and straightforward and goes quickly. The hardest part about building this model is that it requires a LOT of sanding due to all the complex curves and fillets.
Note there are many options for how this model can be set up, including:
With or without canard – The plans show all the modifications necessary to convert this Su-37 to one of the original Su-27 or Su-30 variants.
Twin motors or single motor – The plans show how to adapt this model to a single motor mounted on the centerline (either with or without thrust vectoring)
With or without thrust vectoring – The TV system provides amazing maneuverability but is completely optional—this model still handles great without it
