I just got the Lanier Ultimate Pitts..Wing tips are ugly and very un scale..Has any one out there modified the tips to a more scale appearance?This also goes for the elevators..If I put a lite ply forms in the ends or add balsa to the tail will I be courting disaster????Mike Tope [email protected]

What no responce??Guess I'll just go a head a do it..Had great luck with the flaps I put on my Great Planes F-4..Shouldn't have any probs here either..Mike

Looking at the pic on their site, the wing tips look scale to me.

On the Pitts I have the wing tips as well as stab tips are flat ended..Like the Golberg Ultimate Pitts..I would like tips like the Byron Pitts,Rounded,from leading edge to trailing edge..Like this ), not like This ] ..Thanks for taking the time to talk to me,Thought no one was out there..Mike

Remember the Ultimate Pitts has Ultimate wings, which are square tipped. Normal Pitts wings have round tips and are swept back a little less. It is a hybrid plane that Shawn Tucker flew as the 1-800-COLLECT Challenger. I think his new one is a slightly different, custom design.

Thanks for the info..I just love the byron pitts and thought i could do a little monkeying around with the wing tips to make it look like a byron...Thanks Mike
