I was refering to just tightening them ocassionally, or checkin em anyway... We almost had a disaster tonight. My friend Greg was gasin up his 1/3 scale Pitts, and just happen to notice that the right side cabane strut was cracked at the front hole where it arttaches to the wing. He didn't have ant washers there, just bolt and nut, and we figure thats why it cracked. Not enough squish area. lol That may have been an ugly flight ! Yeah, my Pitts seem to have the same wingspan and everything, and it even looks the same, with slight differences, but this says 70 four stroke. I think an LA 46 would yank it thru the sky quite well though. And why do they call it a Pitts 50 ? I guess the Chinese do have a hard time with our language... I heard it's because we have so many words that have several meanings. Hense the lack of words in our manuals. That little Pitts sure is cute though... Way too cute to fly and get all dirty, but before long, it will have tape all over the wingtips im sure. My little Stearman 40 loves to hop sideways to a stop sometimes. After touchdown, ya really gotta be on that rudder, or it will get away from ya in a hurry, and the Pitts is even shorter ! Were gunna have lots of fun together im sure... The Skybolt lands itself almost, and handles like a sportscar on the ground, so I get a little bored with it. I like em short and squirilly. I must be weird...
