Elster Jet has long been famous as the King of 3D jet airshows, especially with his big Su-30 delivering awesome performance and a gorgeous show display. As we know, Pilot-RC has been collaborating with Elster Jet since 2020, and now we are beginning production of the legendary Su-30 in a convenient new size with uncompromised performance.

It is built 100% from full carbon fiber with honeycomb construction and painted in-mold.

We proudly announce the Pilot-RC SU-30 2.8m Elster Jet.
