Mine fly's great, I have had a few problems , pipe failed 21 flights, nose gear strut has failed ( won't stay up on takeoff ) causes negative angle of attack . No problems with the gear or doors.

Default Viper 2.0 refurb

Hi all. I have been out of the sport for several years and a buddy got me back into it. He also gave me this airframe. It is pretty beat up and needs some tlc. I need some parts and the factory won’t talk to me without a serial number. I can’t find a serial number anywhere. Where is this serial number located?
Regards
Jeff

Wish I could help more. My memory seems to think there were stamps on the wings, or some formers inside the fuse. But those could have been inspection stamps too?

This airframe has the number 73 written on a piece of tape and is on every piece. I am told that this is not the serial number. Kinda frustrating 🤷🏻‍♂️

A note I just received from Banana Hobby about Viper 2.0 parts…

Regrettably, the mold for 2.0 G1 has been damaged, making it impossible for Pilot-RC to manufacture its parts.

How do we know if we have a G1, or not?

I have not been able to find an answer to that question…
