Beautiful plane, just purchased one. Thanks for designing this and putting it on the market; first plane in a long time I've been this looking forward to building. Great ARF. Purchased a Saito FG61-TS to go in the plane; surprised you guys aren't pushing this engine a bit more with a combo purchase. Awesome combo and what I went with myself

[@stepenskowron6085]

What is your finished weight

[@felixleveille8441]

Damn that’s a gorgeous airplane ✈️ 👌

[@robinhodge6]

I have one with the Saito 61 twin. It's a perfect combination in every respect.

[@markskubal844]

Did you use a servo for choke ?

[@andrewterbizan9089]

Very very nice size and looking plane great work love it.

[@victorrcjets7660]

Beautiful bird for sure, i miss gas when i did 1/4 scale with a G62. I would do the electric version lately though! Love the 12s beast a lot!

[@xtraflyr]

Ok so when’s the Christen Eagle going to be released? It seems like the perfect next Bipe! You can use the Pitts for most of it.

[@hb9hal]

Love it ! Will purchase it too 🙂

[@jh1982a]

An Ultimate would be nice... 50cc size

[@matthewcoleman9486]

Gary! Nice I really like the look of it!

[@chipkankel4073]

So happy to see a developer that knows how to design an electric friendly giant scale plane. I was so disappointed to see the H9 60cc Corsair and Mustang did not come with hatches for battery access.

[@BillKisel]

What a tease! I want to see and hear it flying!

[@swede5209]

How about a Super Chipmunk in the 50-60cc size! 🙏

[@BSC1587]

60cc or 100cc Super Skybolt next please. I know for fact it would be a hit.

[@williewonka1970]

Why on the electric powered Pitts in the video the cowl does not line up properly with fuselage white stripe? You would think for this video it should have been perfect.

[@flyboywbl]

Ordered. Im putting an EME 70 twin in it. Does it bother anyone else that trim on the covering and the paint on the cowl lines don't line up on the electric one? I hope that can be remedied when mounting the cowl.

[@mrk8212]

Yes that bugged me too.. For that price it is reasonable to expect perfect alignment

[@flyboywbl]

MRKing Images agreed. You do have to mount the cowl so that’s kind of on the builder but I hope they can all come out matching if you are willing to take the time to do it.

Zenoah gt80 going in mine as long as I don't push over 22 pounds

[@flyboywbl]

@@robertburnett131 seeing as I needed some nose weight with the EME 70, you might be ok. But even the 70cc is overkill

[@TheDWeeks]

I WANT one!

[@johnhorner9692]

Couldn’t stop looking at the uneven white stripe from the cowl to the fuselage....on the one on the right ....

[@flyinwalenda]

They installed the cowl with a clockwise twist. Probably in a hurry to get it together for the segment

[@LyroLife]

I wish

[@stepenskowron6085]

On the electric version. How much weight was needed in the nose to get this to balance at 5 1/4 CG. Mine was tail heavy.

[@robertjones1855]

What color is the red ultracote ?

[@vernonnelson1224]

What would use for smoke? And tank size?

[@stevenunderwood.]

What size esc dod you use. Thank u.

[@steveone9375]

What is the light weight setup

[@kurtpetru7950]

i'm in the process of weighing my electronic pitts - i want to use 6500mah lipos (each is about 800gr) -- now i realize that a lot of ballast has to be used to get the center of gravity right -- is that ok ?

[@stepenskowron6085]

I am setting mine up for electric too. what is your final weight? Mine was tail heavy. Had to add 2 pound 10 ounces to the sides of the motor box. CG is 5 1/2. my total weight is 27.5 pounds

[@kurtpetru7950]

Can this run a zenoah g62 ?

[@jewelleryrecoveryspecialists]

The more this guy talks the less reason I have to purchase a Hangar 9 Pitts.

[@FFE-js2zp]

More flying.

[@antoineozaneaux6881]

please REBOOT on the phone product support .

[@theflash0815]

The Pitts S1 looks way better with the smaller cockpit

[@jewelleryrecoveryspecialists]

Real modelers would prefer a pitts to fly like a pitts, not sure wtf they're thinking.
