E-Fite Pitts Model 12 15e (glow conversion)
I was looking at the E-Flite Pitts Model 12 15e, looks like a really nice plane (from what I can see on the web). Has anyone tried a glow conversion? If so what engine? Also looking for comments from anyone who kept it electric, as to the strength of the plane. Is it too lightly built to even attempt a conversion?
Thanks
Thanks

Hi daved321,
I got one and I am going to keep electric. In my opinion, the firewall is way to week to handle a glow engine. And if you were to built the front end up enough to handle the engine, then it will be over weight. I too would like to know what setup any one has used and how it 3-d.
