Default Tower Hobby PITTS SPECIAL RTF

Hi Gang,
I decided to go with the PITTS SPECIAL.
I always had a love tor the aerobatic plane and had flown one back in 1987. WHHHOOOOOHHHHOOOOO
WHAT A WILD MACHINE.
On my third landing I slipped (Cross Control)in and came in right over the trees and almost gave some spectators a hair cut
What I need to know is for $400.00 + radio gear is the PITTS a nice flying aerobatic model?
Really not looking for speed but at the same time don't want to spend 6 months learning how to fly it.
If anyone has built the TH model I have a few questions
1.How was the covering?
2.How much more longer did it take to finish up the 20%?
3.Final question.Since it is a model and designed for aerobatics how well does it fly in a straigt and level course?
Do you need the fingers on the controls at all times to keep trimming for straight?
Thanks in advance for any input
