goondman Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 After i finish my Hobby Boss tornado, I'm going to give the aformentioned kit another whirl. It was going together just fine on the first go round, but it made its way to the shelf of doom and subsequently to the floor of doom.... That being said, any ideas for fixing the nose attitude? Seems to sit way too low. I was thinking, maybe i can use SAC gear for Great Wall's SU-35? Thanks for any imput! Kurt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paulsbrown Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 The main gear strut length is fine, it's the rear strut that's too short. I replaced mine with one from an Academy Su-27 kit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Do you any more pics of your flanker? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paulsbrown Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Glad to help! Just make your rear strut 1 inch long and it'll have the right droop. Also worth looking at some aftermarket exhaust nozzles as the KH kit doesn't have the powered down nozzles that face downward and in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kasatka Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 These exhausts are the best http://www.amigomodels.ru/product/su-35s-48025/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
