50cc Pitts S-12 ARF
Hello,
I think I have found my next ARF project. I called Aerotech today for a new set of wheel pants for my Velox and in the conversation I asked about what was the next ARF project. They indicated they are in the design phase of a Pitts Model S-12 68" Bi-Plane designed around a 50cc gas. No release date but they hope to have it ready to test fly in June. I know what to ask Santa for.

RE: 50cc Pitts S-12 ARF
apologies....didn't intend to hijack this thread.
In response to the original post...I'd love to see a 50cc pitts in kit form. We need more kits available on the market!
I understand the working hard bit....we all do. But I find it hard to justify repeatedly telling a customer X product will be delivered on X day and then repeatedly telling the customer "sorry, but we've pushed delivery back again". I understand there are always delays and problems that pop up when trying to deliver a product....and have been patient through 4 different "delivery" dates. At some point they'll push the delivery date back too many times and start having customers cancel orders.

Hello,
Yes I agree but it happenes to every manufacturer. I have been victum of this from Hanger 9 to Extreme Flight. We waited almost a year for a YAK. I have bought 5 planes from them and the service have been excellent. All I can say from my experience is they are straight up and always have taken care of me when I need something. Just to get back on topic. A 50cc Pitts S 12 would be a great addition to the modeling market I believe.
Thanks
Dave

I could be interested in either a solid color option or ARC version. Of course I would like to see a bit larger wingspan version from someone.
