Default BME PITTS CHALLENGER

I am surprised that there have not been any threads relating to this Plane. I have read only one thread relating to poor covering material.

What are the pro's and con's. How is construction? Anyone flying these yet. Talk it uP!!!

Mine came in last week and I started on it today- Sunday. Covering on mine is tight! Looks to be good construction too... I'm looking forward to evenings this week to get more done.

Migflyer,

Would you comment as to the quality of the included hardware. Is it typical Chinese junk or is it along the lines of Dubro quality?

Thanks

MigFlyer,

I tend to do the same thing. I replace all the kit hardware with quality stuff that I trust. Thanks.
