Default CH Models Pitts 12

I am having a Pitts 12 95" wing span built with a custom scheme by CH Models. I hope to have it within a month. Here are a couple pictures. Will have more soon.

I was looking at that same plane, how much did you pay to have it built, did you notice that all of the servos go in the tail, meaning the rudder is not set up for a pull pull system, lets see the pics when you actually get it. Good luck.

It was $875 with shipping. Yes, there are six servo slots in the tail. I hate pull pull and would rather have the servos in the tail.

The only question I can answer is engine size. Recommended is 100cc to 150cc. This one will have a Kroma 180. I will have more info after the plane gets here.

We saw one at the DOD here in Houston a couple weeks ago, and it looks like a nicely built arf, and VERY LIGHT, but it appeared kinda small to me.

I am considering one of these but am wondering if it is not better suited to an 80cc single or 100cc twin.
Is there room for in fuse mufflers for a 150cc twin. I am thinking there is not but am hoping to get information from someone who actually has one in their hands.

Thanks,
Lou

Once BME engines brings out their 150CC into full production, Puuuuurrrrrfect motor for this plane.

150cc BME weights in at a whopping 90 oz.. same as a 3W106 I hear.

This could be a great combo... I am subscribed!!!!!
