Thanks! I enjoy flying both! Overal, I'd say I would pick the Raptor if I had to stay with only one, as it's more capable overall, but the MiG can do things that the Raptor can't and the extra size and weight sure are i nice to pull scale moves!
Thanks! The answer depends. 'Normal flight' so to speak, the MiG-29 may be easier to handle, but once you start getting into trouble, it may be a bunch to get under control, where the Su-35 obeys your commands with a sharpness that few if any other scale jets have. Su-35 is also lighter and can be much more powerful (with FMS 1900kv EDF upgrade and 80A ESCs) which makes the comparison rather silly. Su-35 beats the MiG-29 anyday. The good thing of the 29 is that being bigger and heavier flies a bit more scale (but requires some extra skill to handle it properly) and is much less sensitive to wind and bad weather. Also for the same price in batteries, the Su-35 can fly double as it uses a single battery pack where the MiG uses 2 packs.
Awesome flight and glad you got it repaired. If I were to fly normal scale flights is the VT needed? Also is the handling hard with VT, as in does it get mushy?
The main pro to installing TV nozzles on the jet is to prevent high alpha lock. The jet also becomes much more maneuverable obviously but it is capable of scale flight both with and without. Obviously, with VT you will have better control over most low speed maneuvers.
Thanks! Not a glider indeed, hahaha! I would have fared better with some extra altitude or speed but I had neither and still had to find a way to turn the jet around... it happens! ^^
@Mizz It may glide better than other jets (any pure delta like the Mirage, Gripen or Eurofighter, for instance) but by no means such a plane can be considered a glider in terms of performance. As soon as you cut throttle you are going to start losing altitude severely if you maneuver. You can still fly for a long distance unpowered, but such a design has its limits. It's not designed for it. ;)
I crashed my SU-35 a couple days ago. It was too tail heavy and I could barely keep it level with thrust vectoring when it fell. It was not able to do anything but point the nose straight up, but I got it to hit the ground flat. Only broke the important stuff or the expensive stuff.
@@RC4ever haha I let the battery slip back a little. I was running a 4000 HRB instead of a 5000 and put it at the 5000 mark on accident. I looked again afterwards and the CG was like 25mm behind neutral.
@@cwwisk The molded wing marks are NOT neutral. If you mean you were 25mm behind those marks you were not tail heavy. 'Tail heavier' surely, but not 'tailheavy'. The plane can fly fine at 25mm CG behind the marks with VT.
And if that is so... I wouldn't say it's harder to fly, but certainly you can't really pull the same maneuvers, and lack T/W ratio to do most of what I pull with the Su-35. So at that point, yeah, I guess we could say the Su-35 is easier to handle ;) But it really depends on the maneuver. Some things are easier on the Su, some things are easier on the MiG. Overall, the MiG is probably easier to fly, but if you get into trouble, the Su-35 is much more forgiving.
Noooo!😓, lo que uno nunca quiere que pase😓, que fue problema de batería? Espero que los daños no fueran muy graves aunque he visto trozos salir despedidos 😓…
Todo reparado sin problemas, aunque el tren me sigue cascando pero por otros motivos... Problema más bien de piloto que se flipa un tanto y no aterriza cuando debería ^^ Así que... ¡mea culpa! ¡Le apreté demasiado!
Depends on battery weight, but I use the center and aft trays. CG is what really matters, battery placement alone doesn't determine it. My current CG is about 30mm behind wing molded CG marks. Don't use such an aft CG unless you have TV nozzles installed and active though, otherwise you could have real issues with high alpha lock!
I do... on the Gripen! 😂 I abuse the batts so much, voltage sensors usually call low voltage way before time with my style of flying so they aren't that useful. A current sensor would do the job better in my case but unlike Jeti's the FrSky one is heavy and bulky 😢 Anyway, this happened a while ago, the jet is repaired and back in the air although I still have problems with the landing gear.
ho assistito ad un volo veramente bellissimo. Il pilota è stato veramente molto bravo e non meritava una fine così. peccato. Dal video presumo che il crash sia stato causato da una velocità troppo bassa con una relativa perdita di portanza. Ma è solo una mia opinione. Posso chiedere se il pilota è una donna ? nel video si intravedono dei capelli molto lunghi :-) ...
Grazie Marco! 😜 Sono il pilota, non sono una donna, ho solo i capelli lunghi! ^^ L'incidente è stato causato perché le batterie si sono esaurite e gli ESC si sono tagliati durante il giro. Ho fatto del mio meglio per raggiungere la pista ma non avevo energia sufficiente per completare la virata, quindi mi sono concentrato sulla riduzione al minimo dei danni da impatto. Ci sono riuscito, il danno è stato minimo e ho potuto riparare il jet. Leri stavo volando sullo stesso aereo, si avvicina a 300 voli! :D
still no su35 in performance. THey will never beat the su35. I just added the jp hobby edf units and wow does she have some thrust for aerobatics and has some good speed. I actually think the f22 raptor has closer flight performmance to the su35 over the mig. The mig looks to heavy and big. It sounds like its burning too energy to replicate the performance of the su35
Agree, but I find the core issue being more aerodynamical. Size is jot the problem, but weight definitely doesn't help. The model came too heavy for the size.
@@RC4ever What's your verdict on the mig. Can it ever be on par with the su35? Did you ever fly the original eps foam f18 super hornet 90mm with thrust vectoring? That jet rocked. It was on par with the su35. Maybe they need to re spark the eps foam jets. IMHO they spend too much effort on heavy scale jets and not enough on light performance jets. Epo is heavy and I'm not much of a scale fan. I will take performance over scale and day of the week..maybe freewing will try and muster up some product for us performance junkies. Cause of right now I'm a fan of the su35, f22 and the eflite viper 90mm. The rest of the military jet line up look boring.
@@dbirds21 Well, I love scale but I concur with your EPO vs EPS veredict. EPS FTW. But most hobbyists don't think like us, sadly, and EPS is apparently hard to source in China, which increases production costs. I don't think this current MiG can compete with the Su-35, but a lighter one maybe could... also aerodynamically I still regard the Su-35 as the superior one. I didn't get to fly that F-18 (would have lived to) but even that one couldn't really be on par with the Su-35 for a number of reasons. The F-18 doesn't spin naturally. It's designed not to. So it would have to rely heavily on TV to make stuff that the Su-35 can do without already. High alpha stability is also much better on the Su... and there's more... but you get the point! ^^
Lots of amazing flying my friend. Lvc happens to the best of us. That pancake could have been way worse!
Thanks David, agree!
I could repair it very well! Now I just need to sort out the weak landing gear housings, which keep splaying out 😢
amazing, you are quite the pilot
🤩🤩🤩
...gonna blush!
☺️☺️☺️
Awesome flight! Saved it!! What do you enjoy flying more FW F22 or Mig 29? And why?
Thanks! I enjoy flying both! Overal, I'd say I would pick the Raptor if I had to stay with only one, as it's more capable overall, but the MiG can do things that the Raptor can't and the extra size and weight sure are i
nice to pull scale moves!
Fantastic flights. That wasn't fair to end that way. 😢
Thanks! Well, sh** happens... the important thing is that it survived and flew again ( :
Hi may I know which one is easier to fly and glides better, the su35 or mig29? Thanks! Subscribed
Thanks!

I've seen many same mig 29 crashes in my country 😅
I lost my yak 130 this way. Looks like it will be okay after some intensive care. Great flight anyhow😁👍
Thank you man! :D
We need more powerful batteries that can hold up for longer... come on Elon, do something! lolololol

And thanks!
Inspirational stuff! Glad it went back together to fly again. Dead stick moment very well handled. It's not a glider exactly!
Thanks!
Not a glider indeed, hahaha!

@@RC4ever I heard just the opposite - I heard that bird was a glider for sure - have I been misinformed?

Ouch, sorry to hear. Even with full thrust full pitch down it wouldn't recover? that's strange... what CG were you running?

'Tail heavier' surely, but not 'tailheavy'. The plane can fly fine at 25mm CG behind the marks with VT.
@@RC4ever I know. And I was 25mm behind the actual neutral point. It was way tail heavy.
@@cwwisk Oh, I see... So more like >40mm behind the marks then I guess?
Where do you reckon the NP to be at on this one?
Wow that was amazing flying. I’ve flown the MiG-29 and F-15 RC jets planes and the MiG is a better plane to flat and land.
Thanks! Sukhois and MiGs are awesome! 😁
This looks way harder to fly compared to the mig 35 tv?
I assume you actually mean the Su-35?

Which one is easier to do 3D, this MIG29 or SU35? I'm planning to get either one
Su-35, hands down.
Rooooh noooooo Jandrooooooo not again 😩😩😩🙈 but why don’t you use a telemetry voltage sensor like me? It would have safes a lot of planes…😇

@@RC4ever yes pour a current sensor but man it’s time to change for Jeti 🥰🥰🥰🥰

@@ArthurRC I'm thinking about Jeti rather than continuing to wait for the iX14. Planning to take a good look at Jeti at Weston Park in a week's time.
