Default RE: Pitts or Skybolt

The Skybolt is extremely aerobatic but is not great at hovering do to the outward placement of the ailerons. The prop wash completely misses them and the plane goes into a torque roll. It will also not tumble like a shorter coupled plane. It will do very violent snaps and blenders and is exceptional in knife edge flight. It is my favorite plane for doing rolling circles and rolling harriers.
