Default RE: Jim LeRoy Pitts Bulldog - Scratch Build Thread

LOL. That sounds like him. And yes, I agree...a very humble, down to earth person.

He made a similar type of comment when i spoke with him, that stuck with me. I said, "Some of the things you do in a full scale plane I can't do RC." He says "Well, RC's harder." I said "Well, ok, I suppose in a full scale plane you can at least feel the orientation of the aircraft, right?" and he says "Yeah...the good thing about scale aerobatics is you can feel what you're doing. Of course, the bad thing about scale aerobatics is that you can feel what you're doing."



In any event, I'm looking forward to the build, and the result. I'll be sure to share plans (with Andrew's permission, of course) and any changes/decisions, etc.
