Su-33 Sea Flanker floppy wings

Was wondering if anyone has come up with a fix for the Sea Flanker's floppy wing problem. I can't perform a cobra maneuver with the wings folding back in mid "flight".

You got a nasty mind! My comment was about his Flanker, not the kind your thinking

Re: Su-33 Sea Flanker floppy wings

Actually mine work fine, when i press the correct button in the tiny cockpit, presto they stay down fine.

Now for real, I just put a bunch of rubber glue in that crack, they work fine and are not floppy, plus from 15 plus feet you cant even notice the rubber glue on the wings, works great.

You know, come to think of it...the wife doesn't either!
