Can you ID this profile bipe?
I picked up this profile bipe at a swap meet, but don't know what kit it is. Of course, I have no documentation either. Can you identify it?
Here are the specs:
Top Wing: 45", Bottom: 42"
Length: 44"
Engine: YS 53
Sheeted foam core fuselage
Bottom wing through the fuse (not an open saddle)
Ailerons: 5 1/4 x 20"
Any help with CG, control throws, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

If it's a Sig Ultimate Fun Fly, it's quite modified. I've got an Ultmate and about everything on this plane is different. That doesn't mean that someone hasn't modified it though.

RE: Can you ID this profile bipe?
Thank you both. The guys in the profile forum tagged it as an Accel Profile Pitts. I have found the instruction manual which confirms it.
