Twisted Hobbies 30" EPP Crack Pitts M12 Biplane Yellow

Description:

Twisted Hobbys is proud to offer the new Crack Pitts M12 biplane to our Crack Series of small EPP aircraft!


The new Crack Pitts evolved from a very extensive design effort which started with the same formula and design concepts that created Chris Jewett's renowned Crack Yak. It then added RC Factory's extensive experience with F3P biplane design and production, and topped it off with Twisted Hobbys team member and design engineer Cody Wojcik refining the flight envelope and fine tuning the airframe to achieve an incredibly precise yet extremely capable aircraft that we are positive is the absolute best small EPP biplane on the planet!


In the Crack lineup, the Crack Pitts is the smooth, calm and stable aerobatic master to the Crack Yak's high functioning insanity, with the Extra Slick offering a feeling more similar to a smaller balsa 3D airplane. In comparing the Crack Pitts to the Crack Yak many have said the Pitts can feel like a Crack Yak in slow motion.


Designed from the outset to enhance preciseness, the enormous ailerons of the Crack Pitts provide a brisk roll rate when you want it. The generous side area in the airframe means that directional stability is enhanced and KE flight requires very little rudder. Knife edge loops are extremely tight and coupling is zero! In addition to its exceptional flight qualities it will become a legend in learning tool durability and fly-it-anywhere usability. The Crack Pitts is truly at home anywhere from the gym, to the front yard and all the way to the flying club!


Keeping true to Twisted Hobbys exceptional level of prefabrication, you will find all control surfaces are pre-hinged, with laser cut control horns, high quality printing, unique rigid yet light weight EPP construction design, adjustable end links for ease of fine tuning and all hardware needed to construct each model. In addition to what you have come to expect from Twisted Hobbys quality, you will find new construction methods for biplane rigidity resulting in an extremely clean looking final aircraft without any need for external bracing and vastly improved durability over other EPP biplanes.

Yep, 3S 360mah is what I like.

Won't be around for a few days. Going to hang at Nall. Leaving like 4 a.m. Sunday. Wish us safe travels and stuff. We will have vids when we return... guaranteed!

Ohh I didn't see this vid till today =( Agreed, good flying. The Crack Pitts is my favorite plane for back yard shenanigans as well ... I'll wake up in the morning and toss 4 batteries through before going to work if it isn't windy, and maybe another set at night lit up to clear my head before bed. Practice makes perfect and such.
 
Syzyguy, yeah, it's the first plane I pick up right now pretty much unless it's too windy (then I grab a 39). The Pitts can tumble and rolls are crisp. Very well behaved.
