Dear All Members,
JETS beauty, sound and speed is a ispiration for ma , however I cant handle JET speed , but they always attracted me. This year, long rainy season given me a lot of time and oppurtunity to complete repair and new projects.
I found SUKHOI 37 most attractive to me (:|~ , so taken print out and start building.
Wing Span – 36 Inch
Air foil – KF4
Weight – 600- 700 Gms
Material - 8 mm BIOFOAM
Glue – Hot Glue, Araldite, Fevicol Decoration Glue
Regards
Mohan
Nice model. Pl point to link of plan.
Here is the assembly view of all parts together of SU 37.
Used only Hot Glue, total weight of air frame is near 370 gms.
Beautiful..... {:)} {:)}
Nice job. Look forward to performance details.
If you build a version 2, you may like to consider the following suggestions:
1. Keep the step at 40% of the chord
2. Step height 8-10% of chord
3. Tapering the top and bottom sheets towards the tip to maintain thickness/chord ratio.
Hope this helps.
Best of luck for maiden.
There is the link in parkjets. Schumate' plan. This one i have been waiting to build for over a year now.
Great work Mohan :D
Thanks Sundaram, Tanmay, Iyer Ji and Sanjay Ji for kind words.
The plan is from FRC FOAMMY - Boxermad84, you can easily search on Google.
Plan has two version of 36 and 26 in wing span .
Sanded all surfaces including wing profile. Now starting look like a Real Sukhoi.
Iyer Ji,
I found three different shapes of KF 4 Airfoil. Since my model is some heavy, so chosen pattern #2 for more lift. Regarding steps , I follow the plan , which may be at 50% of chord.
Pattern #2 generates more lift and helps model to float in air.
Good work
Here is the complete model.
More Photographs
Ahaa! You used that HK landing gear :)
Time for video now Mohan!
yes sanjay ji, I used Hobby king gear , because field which we use to fly is full with small stones. we can not land it with gears.
Here is the maiden flight video. Prop sucks all small stones from ground and Brocken. Fuselage have some small holes and needs some small repair , new prop etc.

Sanjay Ji , today we maiden this model, flu well , some under power , so speed was not enough like jet, will post vedio .

Killer looks MJET {:)} Suddenly I too got the Jet Fever (may be due to the balloon poping event) and decided to finish building the SU 37 mk2. Fuse almost done and hope to finish her in two days (eves) time.
Superb... All the best
Wow! that was quick Shantanu! Thanks mate :)
Hey Sam! Sure looks good! Send 'ér up fassst! :D
@Mjet:- Where is the Video..??
Great job....sam, very clean build. Pl share your power planning for this model.post some more picks.
tanmay- I could not edit the video, so not uploaded.but definitely will upload soon.
Sure will do Sanjai Bhai! and thanks :)
Mjet: I had a HK 2200kv laying around (from my first ever rc plane 2 years back: again SU37 SF from Tomhe) which I intend to use with a MA 6x4 3blade pusher, plush 40A from my foamy yak and couple of 9g HXT servos. I cut the pieces few weeks back but found time to put them together yesterday night. Hope to finish her by tomorrow and maiden on Friday.
Most of our GAS fliers at the field are into these jet foamies these days to have some fun, and relaxation in between flights. Thought I should give it a try :D and I do miss scratch building.
Great build guys ....
Finally found time to finish her and maiden!
