Finally, a 50cc Python,

I just checked the site, when will they be available...I want one bad

We plan to fly it after toledo we will know then when production will start and will be able to give a ballpark dilivery date.

Smooth move guys,Looks good but is it the pics or is the nose a lil thin ? Other pythons look like they havemuch bigger around fuse and nose. or is it pics> great job and thanks for the QB series , you hit a home run with these arfs, excellent quality, nice fit and finish. you have a repeat customer here. Now make it bigger......lol

On a second look.... is there any airfoil on the horizontal or vertical stab? They look flat. For $700, I would want airfoiled surfaces.

The stabs are flat on the "full scale" airplane.

Yes they are flat tails because the full size has a flat tail.....

Not exactly. Full size does not have a flat tail. Stab tapers thicker to the hinge line and the elevators taper from that thickness to very thin at the trailing edge.

from the Pitts Python web site. The stabs sure look flat to me

I'm not as particular about trueness to scale as I am about warps... not a problem in the full scale, but I don't know if I've ever gotten a plane with flat surfaces that were truly flat.

We have reinforced the stab and rudder in order to prevent warpage.

True but my reply is, that the full scale does not have a air foiled tail.

I'll wait on some feedback from the production units.. if they're stiff enough to prevent warping, it shouldn't be a problem. Out of curiosity.. why the Python style? Longer fuse for better control?

Mark Dennis 04-10-2007 02:44 PM

RE: Introducing the NEW Aeroworks Pitts Python ARF QB!!!
 
The airplane has some very good qualities that make it ideal for RC one of which beeing the fuse. its also a change of pace.

Will there be any other color schemes available?

Thanks,

HI, I just got back from the Toledo show. This plane is nice, The pictures dont even come close to showing off this awsome bid. I will be putting in a order for one as soon as aeroworks takes them. To bad its going to be awhile befor they are in. Real nice job on this plane guys.!!! :D

RE: Introducing the NEW Aeroworks Pitts Python ARF QB!!!
 
Is there any concerns about the stabs needing flying wires since they are flat and not airfoiled, Im not hung up on airfoiled stabs, I think flat stabs fly just fine. I had one of the old 29% edges it had a flat stab and flew great. thanks Tim

reyn3545 04-17-2007 10:40 PM

RE: Introducing the NEW Aeroworks Pitts Python ARF QB!!!
 
My Lanier uses flying wires.. they seem to do a great job of keeping everything squared up. I guess if you had problems with warping or the surfaces washing out on you under stress, it would be a pretty simple process to make and attach some for this plane. I can't wait to read some of the build threads and see what folks think. I guess it will be a few months, though.

Is that the actual cowl that the production plane will have? I've heard rumors it'll be revised to look like an actual Python for the production plane.

Mark Dennis 04-20-2007 02:56 PM

RE: Introducing the NEW Aeroworks Pitts Python ARF QB!!!
 
Yes, The cowl will be changed for the production planes.

Awesome! I can't wait for this one!
