Overview
The FMS 70MM SU-27 Vertical Stabiliser is a precision-engineered replacement component designed for FMS scale RC aircraft models. This vertical stabiliser forms a critical part of the aircraft's tail assembly, directly influencing flight dynamics, stability and aerodynamic performance during flight. Whether you're an experienced RC aeroplane enthusiast in the UK or a dedicated modeller looking to repair or upgrade your FMS SU-27 model, this genuine OEM component ensures authentic performance and perfect fitment with your existing airframe.
As a replacement part for the FMS 70mm SU-27 scale model aircraft, this vertical stabiliser is essential for maintaining proper directional stability and control response. The component is specifically engineered to FMS specifications, meaning it integrates seamlessly with the rest of your model's structure and control systems. RC aeroplane pilots and collectors recognise FMS for their commitment to quality construction and aerodynamic accuracy, and this stabiliser component reflects that same attention to detail.
Whether you've experienced damage to your original vertical stabiliser, lost a component, or simply wish to have a spare on hand for your RC aircraft, this is the genuine FMS part you need. Purchasing authentic replacement components ensures your model performs as intended and maintains its resale value and structural integrity over time.
Key Features
- Genuine FMS Component — This is an authentic manufacturer part coded FMSRZ104, ensuring perfect compatibility with FMS 70mm SU-27 scale model aircraft and maintaining the original aerodynamic profile and performance characteristics your model was designed around.
- 70mm Scale Dimension — Specifically sized and engineered for the 70mm SU-27 model series, this stabiliser provides the exact surface area and proportions required for proper flight dynamics and directional control response.
- Critical Aerodynamic Function — The vertical stabiliser is essential for maintaining directional stability during flight, preventing unwanted yaw movements and ensuring your RC aeroplane responds predictably to control inputs from your radio transmitter.
- Direct Replacement Part — Designed as a drop-in replacement for damaged, worn or lost original components, this part requires no modification or adjustment and integrates immediately with your existing airframe and control linkages.
Technical Performance
The FMS 70MM SU-27 Vertical Stabiliser is manufactured to OEM specifications that match the original component supplied with FMS SU-27 70mm scale model aircraft. This tail fin component is engineered to withstand the aerodynamic forces encountered during typical RC aeroplane flight operations, including climbing, diving, banking and sustained level flight. The stabiliser works in conjunction with the rudder control surface to manage yaw authority and directional response, critical factors for precision flying and aerobatic manoeuvres. FMS components are recognised throughout the RC hobby for consistent build quality and accurate scale proportions that contribute to realistic flight characteristics. The vertical stabiliser's profile and surface area are calculated to provide appropriate directional stability without excessive drag or control heaviness. This component is compatible with standard FMS airframe designs and integrates with both mechanical push-rod and modern electronic control linkage systems used in RC model aircraft.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a vertical stabiliser and why do I need one for my FMS SU-27? — The vertical stabiliser is the tail fin component that controls directional stability and yaw response in your RC aeroplane. It works with your rudder control surface to prevent unwanted side-to-side movement and ensure your model responds predictably to control inputs. If your original stabiliser is damaged, warped or lost, replacement with this genuine FMS part is essential for safe and controlled flight.
- Is this a genuine FMS part? — Yes, this is an authentic FMS component with the official model number FMSRZ104. Purchasing genuine replacement parts ensures perfect fitment, maintains your model's performance characteristics and preserves the integrity of your scale model aircraft.
- Will this fit my FMS SU-27 RC aeroplane? — This vertical stabiliser is specifically engineered for FMS 70mm SU-27 scale model aircraft. If your model is a genuine FMS SU-27 in the 70mm size range, this component will fit and function correctly. Verify your model's exact designation before purchasing to ensure compatibility.
- Do I need any tools or special skills to install this stabiliser? — Installation typically involves removing the damaged stabiliser by unbolting it from the fuselage and disconnecting any control linkages, then installing the new component in reverse. Most RC modellers with basic mechanical skills can perform this replacement. Refer to your FMS SU-27 manual for specific installation procedures if available.
- What is the price and what's included? — The FMS 70MM SU-27 Vertical Stabiliser is priced at £45.99 USD. The component is supplied as shown; any additional hardware, adhesives or control linkage components must be sourced separately if needed for your specific installation.
