cause this plane is built to have a lot of torque to keep the plane moving forward but not a high rpm so its not as fast but its better at low speed aerobatics
@TLVspotter yeah that sounds about right, still as much as Red Bull races look cool, I would much rather anyday fly something like this Russian machine :-) SU-31 is a top aircraft, would love to fly one one day.
@adrianrubi well looking at the pure specs sukhoi is heavier and wider than the ones in redbull its more powerfull and since there is a speed limitation in red bull this doesnt help them, sukhoi has an inferior rate of climb and bigger wing surface which might cause additional drag in some cases (dont quote on this one)
