Default RE: Lanier Ultimate Pitts

Okay, this is one nice looking bipe, I bought it based on that alone. It is a very heavy kit. I had a FEMA on-board starter in mine so I added another 20 oz. and it flew like it. Since my last post my UP went in after what seemed to be a very light touch and go where the mains folder back and into the lower wing casuing a major control issue. I did what I could to belly it in but on the final it flipped and went straight in. Was not even worth the rebuild so I stripped it and and using them elssewhere.


Cermark or Aeroworks may be your better choice.

I have two other Lainer kits a 1/4 scale Laser 200 and the 1/3, for it's size the 1/3 is lighter than the 1/4 relativly speaking 1/3 20-22 lbs with a Brisson 4.2 the 1/4 about 12-14 with saito 150.
