The Sukhoi SU26E-flite's Sukhoi SU-26M is based on the highly successful single-seat aerobatic plane from the former Soviet Union. Powered by a Vedneyev M14 nine cylinder radial engine the SU-26 has mid-mounted straight wings and a fixed landing gear mounted on a solid titanium arc.
This first class aircraft has excellent acceleration, rate-of-climb, controllability and the structural integrity to endure high levels of positive and negative g-loads. The Sukhoi design also incorporates a cockpit that allows the pilot an all-round field of view which is critically important for handling within the limited flying space allowed during aerobatic competition.
The Sukhoi SU-26 made its first flight in June 1984 and with further modifications to the tail surfaces and conversion to a three-blade propeller the aircraft won both the men's and women's team prizes at the 1986 World Aerobatics Championships and has been wining titles ever since.
