Thread for discussion on the Twisted Hobbys' Crack Pitts, one of my all time favorites up to this point.

Some Stills from my Achrive.

Pictures with the batteries are showing 2s and 3s location. Also of interest, if not using the landing gear a small center skid can be added as shown right near the aileron servo, make it just the right height to match the SGF's so the plane will set flat. Detail of the quick links use for the ailerons also shown..... Enjoy!

.... not sure yet how to get all the pics to line up... : ) Gyro?

I'm building one of these right now. It's for a friend who made me a deal on another airplane. However I can't wait to test it out and I feel once I do I'll be wanting to order another one for myself!

This is one of my all time favorites... if you fly it before giving it to you friend, you well very likely not want to part with it.... : )

I finished mine last night and was AMAZED at how well it flies. Not an easy build but definitely worth the time.

Good luck giving that thing up after you test fly it. Lol. Better order your friend one right now and promise to build that one after. Haha.

Yeah I know. But I am more of a single wing guy so I'm eyeing the Crack Yak or Extra Slick for myself.

Ahaha he called it! That's pretty funny. That's it i'm getting one on my next paycheck! I'll just use the servos from my Extra slick and get a new motor and ESC from twisted. I'm excited. Too many people like this plane for me not to get one. I love bipes and don't own one so this will fill a void in my hanger.

Yeah I just wish I didn't have a bathroom to replace the flooring in and 3 young boys with birthdays coming up very quick! On the plus side there is a swap meet this weekend at one of the local hobby shops not far from here. I'll be dragging some planes and gear up there. I might find myself with some extra $$$ for a Pitts of my own.
