[goncaloareias98]

Hi ! What kind of tape did you used to convert a epo ailerons? That tape is available in hobbyking store?

Thanks, and good flights ;)

[playsportarcher]

Is that the stock motor? The specs on all of your reviews would be helpful.

[crunked83]

listen at 3:05 the sound he makes when he crashes hahahahahahahaha

[beneehall]

Geez guys, REAR WING ?????????????

It's the STABILIZER and the movable portion i the ELEVATOR.

Aside from that, great presentation.,

[Eugensdiet]

No rolls or loops? The plane looks a little fast for indoors.

Great review guys!! I was wondering about the Pitts EPO plane, and EPO in general. Greta job flying, made it look like it no trouble with wind. Good job testing the "crash resistance" capabilities of the EPO as well. :) I just love the Pitts, can't wait to see what lies ahead.

Thanks Tim! Glad you had a chance to fly the Mini Pitts while we were out at Hermann Airport this weekend! The weather was perfect! as for EPO it is similar to epp in the fact that it is more flexible and more crash resistant than eps foam. I still think epp is more crash resistant but it is also much more flexible and needs more stiffening.

@HobbykingLive No, thank YOU Frank and Paul for letting me fly it!! You are spot on with the foam comparisons. As for the plane, it flew GREAT! I didn't like the throws on the ailerons though. The short wingspan makes it a bit roll-happy, but the short throws lacked the control authority necessary to handle the roll rate. Once it goes into a roll, its a real bear to get out of it. Luckily though, that's just an adjustment fix. Great plane overall!

nitro planes and banna hobby should hire you guys to do reveiws, love the honesty and the real world flying and veiws and mods needed. the fact is nobody makes a perfect arf plane and already knowing what needs to be done makes it easier for us nonpro's to buy things with confidence and know that we can make it work. very well done keep it up.

Hey Paul & Frank great review seems so natural for you. That is a nice little plane just not able to land on grass with those small wheels wasn't you Paul.

Great review boys and i'm glad you gave an honest review ;-) not like some on the tube where they do promos for a company and say it 100% and you just know it's not as good as they say because you have already done your home work on it ;-( anyways keep up the good work and keep them coming = 5*
