Default RE: Pitts or Skybolt

Maidened my Skybolt arf with a YS 110 yesterday. All I can say is WOW! Fly by at a crawl, slowly advance throttle to half and watch that baby get smaller and smaller at a 75 degree climb out. Landing? Better than my trainer ever landed. Sound of that YS 110- WWWWWOOOOOoooowwwww.

Spinning a Master Airscrew 14" X 7" three blade prop. Moved the tank back to the servo tray, strapped the battery to the tank, mounted the receiver next to the tank, mounted a smoke tank behind the firewall on a removable hatch door. Plane balanced with no ballast added.
