Sukhoi Su-27 flanker B

Auto Credit Based on Armyguy1534's Soviet Challange [Closed]

a replica i was working on, the Su27 is a Soviet 4th gen, supermaneuverable fighter, capable of maneuvers like the Pugachev's Cobra. but alas, about this replica, i used blueprints to make it, so the overall shape is almost perfect, but scale is a bit off, it is really maneuverable at most speeds, but once below 220mph, you have a high risk of stalling, the pugachev can be pulled off at any speed above 260mph, though 290 is preferred, since all wings are stalled, your aircraft is being controlled by drag, not lift, so, to get the nose down, leave the elevator on neutral, they'll work like airbrakes and will make you pitch down, once your AOA is about 20 degrees, the elevators stop being stalled, so normal pitch control can be used, by the way, the pugachev's cobra can only be performed whent the elevator limiters are off (AG8) it changes their limit from 5 degrees to 25, so be careful when you do any maneuvers wih it off. landing gear button moves the landing gear, and the cannon only has 200 rounds, so be careful with your shots, hope you like it, if you do, please upvote, and have a good day

    @EngineerOtaku it had originally been made to fly with the "fly-by-wire" mod, but i decided to remove that to post it as part of that challenge i saw, with that mod it did in fact fly better, but stalls were still a thing, now; the missile problem, i have no idea why that is, maybe your AOA is negative, making the missiles hit the fuselage? or maybe the problem is the 2 missiles in the middle of the body, i am not sure, i don't remember experiencing similar issues, but alas, thanks for the feedback!

    Just got done flying it around and doing a dogfighting test versus my own Su-27.
    .
    Your build looks great, but performance wise I have to be as gentle as possible in the pitch. Even mildly intense pitch control below around 350-400mi/hr causes me to enter spins, which I think hurts the overall agility. This makes dogfighting a tricky prospect.
    .
    Also it...kinda like to blow up when firing missiles at certain AoA. Not sure why that is.
    .
    Still it's a nice build :)

    @TrislandianAlliance your builds look nice, also, seems like most of them are made on a cellphone. building stuff with a touchscreen is hard as all hell, if compared to keyboard and mouse
