    Sport JTEC RADIOWAVE 26% Pitts Model 12

    So here is where I am at. Pretty much "DONE"! All that is left is re-locating the flight packs, (which I will do when I am ready to balance) and paint. That's it. I finished up the cowl just moments ago and truthfully I still hate cutting up cowls. LOL. I think now after opening up the slots in...

    Uh....Yeah!!! Though I will admit they definitely are a work of art...(the guy is a magician)...this kind of work is so far out of my league and way above my pay scale. Beautiful...no doubt. But I neither have the patience nor the equipment to do something like this. Wow...very nice indeed.

    Thank you Earle. Coming from you as well as so many others, it really means a lot to me. I made a little more headway on the Pitts today. I was from one end to the other of that bird changing things, re-arranging things and getting other things taken care of. First off, I have ultimately...

    I remember from a few years back trying to transport the wing of my H-9 B25 and H-9 Mustang. The B25 at 80" and the Stang at 78". I hated every minute of it. Course that was before I got my trailer. Of course there is always the alternative. Hee hee... Nice construction Mike. Something about...

    Thank you. Hardly as top notch as your attention to detail with your builds. But I'll take it. LOL

    Hey everyone. Had a little dinner and the "rat" doggie is fed so I guess I will take a minute to update the progress on the Pitts. Last night I started placing the canopy for fit and final mounting. Before doing so, I had a few decisions to make. First off being the pilot bust. As earlier...

    Quick update everyone. I got started on placing the canopy last night. Was pretty well whipped out so I didn't get a chance to post the photos and info. Will get them posted this evening.

    Then again @Snoopy1 I suppose the sound alone could be incentive enough to at least give it a try huh? Holy crap, what if they swapped out the 50cc jugs and replaced them with the 60cc jugs from the 120's? Hmmm....a 360cc six cylinder. NOW "THAT"....would be classic BEASTYALITY!!! I think....I...

    I haven't gotten much done on the Pitts this weekend. Well not too much that is. I spent Saturday assembling two desks for some friends for their business office. Sunday I installed a new above range microwave for my daughter in her home. Taking lil "Pop-Top" to the doggie park with my youngest...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    http://www.pilot-rc.com/ Best bet is to contact Tony directly (pilot-rc@139.com) But do be patient. Now that Chinese new year is over, he should respond within a couple of days. He usually responds to my emails within a day or two at most.

    I've seen flying lawnmowers, witches, dinos, shark...the list is endless. But one think I've not seen is a flying stroller. (1:38) You gonna put wings on that stroller and fly it too? Seriously, the trailer looks great. I am looking forward to a new trailer this year. My last one ran out of...

    Odd thing about glues. We, (my son and I) used to use nothing but Jet CA. That is until we realized we were paying far too much money for it. Buying the name like Nike shoes, just ain't worth it. I was actually quite pleased with the Tower CA on the Pitts. We're going to find out real soon just...

    We'll truth be told. Size, appropriate accommodations for building and transportation are paramount in my mind. Size really is not an issue. I don't find moving them around such a big deal. Once completed I am projecting auw around 60 to 70 pounds. Maybe less. We'll see. As for building...
