scimitar Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I thought I read somewhere that the rear seat of the Su-30 sm had a collapsible joystick, so should such be represented by cutting off the handle and gluing it to the "boot?" Am I under a misapprehension? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

paulsbrown Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Sagebrush rolling through the deserted street. I've put a lot of time into Flanker building/research and have never seen or read anything regarding collapsible rear controls. Where do you think you read about it?

Much obliged! I've got yet another nearly finished. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ed DeVivo Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 That is what makes that aircraft so unique!! It's a beautiful machine in of its shape, etc. but the metal areas around the engines with all its different hues of burnt metal are in itself a reason to buy those kits!!
