Absolutely nothing compares with a Pitts biplane. Critics around the world concur—flying one will ruin almost all other aerobatic experiences. First flown practically 75 years back, to this day the Pitts plans, sets, and completed biplanes that leave the Aviat Aircraft Company, are all incredibly just like the pioneering original design. The E-flite® Pitts S-1S park flyer is a tribute to the Curtis Pitts design that distinctively combines an authentic appearance with fantastic handling for amazing performance any RC pilot can appreciate.
The E-flite® Pitts S-1S scale biplane is an officially licensed replica of the full-blown aerobatic icon that’s expertly developed and equipped to deliver a flight experience that’s easy to delight in. The general dimensions definitely catch the innovative Pitts describes while EPO building helps present scale detail with a high level of resilience. Although installing and eliminating the wings is extremely easy and tool-free, this gorgeous bipe is sized so you probably never need to take it apart. Like the full-blown, under the hood is the type of power that differentiates this aerobat as a potent performer with practically limitless potential. Ballistic vertical climbs, dizzying snaps, crisp rolls and sharp corners are just a few of its specialties. Scale pilots will appreciate its smooth flight performance and level of detail, while everyone will enjoy its power system flexibility. Whether you decide to fly this unique aerobat on a 3S or 4S LiPo, this Pitts S-1S bipe will deliver an aerobatic experience without equal.
Authentic Detail Besides the cautious attention to every overview, scale detail includes the look of fabric covered building, plus detents highlighting where panels and hatches are found on the full-size. The characteristic wedge-shape fuselage is crowned with a scale spinner in a shape frequently found on high-powered versions of the Pitts bipe while the cockpit area is neatly designated with an enclosed canopy and painted pilot figure. Optional-use flying wires for added scale looks are also included.
Abundant Power The high-power brushless power system features an ESC, motor and prop that combine with a 3S LiPo battery to deliver an abundance of thrust and beyond-scale performance. Or you can install a 4S battery for ballistic, rocket ship-like vertical power and way beyond scale performance without the need for any modifications or upgrades.
Tool-Free Field Assembly Although sized to fit completely assembled in practically any car, installation and removal of the wings is tool-free for the ultimate in convenience. Pins easily secure the struts into the wings while each center difficult point is locked into place with adjustable locator pins and body clips.
Durable Design Building with resilient EPO material makes it possible to duplicate complicated detail in a lightweight type. The result is an exceptional scale appearance that’s easy to preserve and enables the most rewarding flight experience possible to shine through.
AS3X® Receiver with Optional SAFE® Select Flight Envelope Security This Bind-N-Fly® Fundamental model is equipped with a Spektrum™ 2.4GHz DSMX® receiver featuring AS3X (Artificial Stabilization – 3-aXis) technology that works behind the scenes to smooth out the impacts of wind and turbulence so you delight in a sense of stability and precision that makes it feel like you're flying a much larger, expertly tuned aircraft.
If this is your first biplane, or you want an extra margin of safety while familiarizing yourself with the plane, you can allow the optional-use SAFE® Select flight envelope security technology developed into the receiver.
With SAFE Select allowed, you get:
Pitch and Bank Angle Limits These envelope limits keep the plane from rolling or pitching upside down. They also prevent excessive climb or dive angles.
Automatic Self-Leveling The plane immediately returns to and holds level flight when the sticks are released and in the center position. It’s also valuable for keeping the wings level during launches and landings.
Easy switch project—no programs required The easy procedure for designating a transmitter switch to turn SAFE Select features on and off doesn't require any programs and takes just a few seconds.
