Twisted Hobbys - 30" EPP Crack Pitts M12 Biplane

hone

150cc
CG is a personal thing but i like mine to be slightly ahead of neutral so that the plane will fall slightly when inverted after being trimmed for level flight at 3/4 throttle. Some people like it neutral so that it takes no stick input to keep the plane level inverted but slightly nose heavy improves precision.
I don't have the Pitts but go out and fly it. When you make sure it's all trimmed out fly a level pass at 1/2-3/4 throttle then roll inverted and center the sticks. If the plane falls fast it is too nose heavy, if it doesn't fall at all but stays level you're neutral, and if it climbs you're tail heavy.

I really need to get one of these...

Love the TH Pitts. My favorite plane to fly right now over my Parkzone SE5A and ArtTech Corsair
It can fly slow and low yet perform all of the 3D maneuvers.
Really like the size and weight since it can handle some wind (5-10mph)
Builds fast and rugged yet light weight and flies in really small areas/parks
You should get one, you will not be disappointed (running the standard power combo on a 2S 500mah Lipo)
