? Cermark Pitts ?
 
I didn't find these answers in the threads that popped up on my forum search:
1. What color Oracover or Ultracote matches the blue on the Cermark S-2B? I wanna think it's Corsair Blue (Ultracote) but I'm not sure. Does anybody have a better idea?
2. What prop mfg/size are you all using on the Saito 180 for this airframe?

Thanks for any help.

Mike

Hey thanks to bothayas ... :D

I succeeded in poking a hole thru the fuse side while mounting my switch/chg jack (doh) - so I'll go grab some of the midnight blue UC. Just about finished running some fuel thru the 180 to get it dialed in; so far, an APC 17x6 with 30% RedMax helo fuel is working OK. I live/fly at 6,800 MSL and hope to fly this bad boy after I finish the radio setup.

Again, thanks.

You'll like the Pitts. It flies great and looks good in the air. I'm running a Saito 150 w/APC 17x6 on mine and it has plenty of power. I replaced the cabane strut hex nuts inside the fuse with lock nuts. The hex nuts can vibrate loose. Been flying mine almost 2 years with no problems. It lands like a baby carriage.
