New SU-26
Hey everyone I just picked this little baby up for $35.00 (pretty good deal I think). I am wondering if anyone knows what it is?? I mean what kit, motor size, etc...? Also would anyone happen to know where I could find a cowl for her?

Thanks Dan

It's not a CG. What's the span?

I'll measure everything tomorrow and post it to help distinguish what she is. We have company staying with us right now and my room was nominated as the guest room. All my tools are in there doh!!

Thanks Dan

That pilot looks a lot like the World Models pilot that they put in every plane they make.

The landing gear says Extra.
I'd guess it would be either a V-Mar, Seagull, or World Models Extra300.

You may be right Mike, looking at the tailfeathers and wing planform. The canopy is definately sukhoi-style.

You could probably make a cowl from a plastic 2-Litre pop bottle.
