Lately i was reading nice updated homepages of F3A world champion Christophe and his brother top F3A and indoor pilot Benoit Paisant le Roux and found very interesting model. Small electric aerobatic plane Yuka build by Benoit, that is original designed and flown by Jurgis Kairys , well known in all world because of his crazy flying ! It is very nice to see that two leaders of today big and RC aerobatic join forces and start working together. Here few shoots form BPLR homepage : Benoit and new Juka.
Good looking airplane.
New Yuka in action. The JUKA name comes from Jurgis Kairys initials as they are pronounced in Lithuanian. The plane is all metal with some composite fairing pieces. It is considerably lighter than the lightest Sukhois. It is still in development and has had subtle changes to the gear (stronger) and tail surfaces (bigger) than when the plane made its hurried debut in Brno, Czech Republic in May 2002.
J.Kairys Juka in hangar.
Jurgis Kairys and his plane beffore flight. Take a look to real Juka in action, deffinately one of the best (If not the best) Aerobatic plane today: Jurgis Kairys homepage.
