MaidenFan Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 This plane is never out of control during this video. When F-18's go into spins, they look completely out of control.

Lukasz Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 Su-30Empty weight: 17,700 kg (39,021 lb)Max takeoff : 34,500 kg (76,060 lb)B-17Empty weight: 16,391 kg (36,135 lb)Max takeoff : 29,700 kg (65,500 lb)Extra 300Empty weight: 682 kg (1,500 lb)Max takeoff : 952 kg (2,095 lb)Impressive footage indeed, however that's not exactly my idea of aerobatic plane Lots of power and flying control surfaces area, but also lots of inertia, which bites hard, when anything goes wrong. And it surprisingly often does go wrong. Been there, saw that, don't wish to repeat the experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That thing looks so controllable when it goes into those spins. I could use a nice payware quality one for X-Plane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaidenFan Posted January 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 I just took one I found at the org for a spin. Turns out, Barry's V8 one doesn't work on V9. Any, I did a bit of a hover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
