I don't know what it is but it's too big and heavy for a .10. By the time the engine and radio are in it, the plane will weigh over 2 lbs.

It is an old Pilot S2a Pitts. I have one hanging in the garage. It flys well on a .15. I have around 20 flites on it over the last 12 years. I will be romoving the old servos and putting new ones in to get the weight down a little bit. It can be real rough on th eground. It has a habit of spinning when you input rudder to correct for rift. I get it rolling and then slam the gas and pull up. It is air born in 10-15 feet. Mine has no bad habits, it is fun to fly.
