Model achieves 870 mph level at 15,000 feet. Normal takoff at 3/4 down the runway, retract gear, zoom to 35,000 feet and perform a full loop - you'll be heading on approach to the runway with practice. Started as a joke (MIG21 was a slimmer plane) yet decided to post it when performance worked out well. Enjoy, comment, rate.

    Looks like a SimplePlanes Mig 21, on steroids. Acrobatic at high speeds!

    Wings/gear are great. With a re-design of the fuselage I'm guessing you'll finally get a 1,000 MIG21 - go for it!

    A model that performed 2 full loops @ 35,000 - 20,000 feet. Nice!

    I think the 870 mph (supersonic) was "military power", great but real MIG21s were supposed to exceed 1,000+ mph.

    Incredible handling! The first full loop brought me back to the island for landing.
