Finally got mine going today. A bit tailheavy, and a quick landing, but in one piece.

Looks and sounds good. The way my video was playing, it made the prop blades look very bent which was cool too.

Here is the airframe that I converted into the Pitts:

Nice in-flight video. I normally don't like that too much, but it is quite realistic when turning the camera. Maybe it should be called Bipe week. I will try again as soon as the wind dies down.

I flew the biplanes the past weekend. (June 26th). I brought the UMX Pitts, the Ultimate 2 and the SE5a. We had a crosswind of +23km/h that morning. I was a bit worried with the planes I brought to the field. It turn out not bad at all.

Nice. Looks like 5 flights out of a whole country? 4 attempts?
