Jimbo - a few years' back, maybe '08 or so, I did the PeakModels' Python 50cc...reading your build and seeing the pics reminded me that many of the same things existed on that plane. The cowling stuff, the too many screws,<span style="color: #ff0000"> the short wing tube</span>, the engine hub location....I'm thinking there must be a universal "mother" Pitts Python in China that everyone used for the 50cc versions....Mine was the solid black almost - and the silhouetting in sun was a big problem. Yours will be a lot more visible. Mine flew VERY well, was incredibly fast and agile, would snap like no tomorrow, stop on a dime, and FLOATby at high speed on approach. We thought it would slow up, but it was plenty fast, and really very nice.
I'm sure that yours will work out great!!!!!!
I didn't check mine yet, that's got me scared now...lol
The mother pitts in china, now that's funny and i think your right.....
