Re: HUGE PITTS S1!~!!!!~
Wow, that's a big bird!
Also cool in that link: http://www.flixxy.com/bo105-helicopter-aerobatics.htm I really dig the disco but the low flying gets your heart going. |

Re: HUGE PITTS S1!~!!!!~
NO no..
this plane I believe crashed at the HUGE all gigantic (50% - 70%) RC show somewhere in Israel last year. Adrian always posts pictures of the show, and I remember seeing this plane wadded up in the desert. Sad very sad.. But this video is awesome!

Re: HUGE PITTS S1!~!!!!~
Anybody know who the builder was or if this was a plans-built bird? Any info on engine size or wingspan or length? (This one is from Israel so I'm just guessing someone is a bit easier giving out info on it!)
