Default Composite ARF Pitts Biplane / Anyone?

Hey All,
Haven't heard boo about this aiplane yet. Looks awsome and hope I'll see some at the JR Challenge. Anyone building one out there?

The plane looks great, but I'm not crazy about the scheme. It's too busy for me. I like the 3W Pitts 12 better.

Patience guys!

The spraybooth is already at max capacity so new schemes will need to be phased in as and when they can. Looks great though doesn't it!!

That's way better! Since it looks simpler to paint, is it any less $$$$ ??? Is the bottom of the bottom wing solid red also?? That thing is sweet, I may have to get one.

Don't forget,
If you can't wait - then you can always repaint it. Personally I think it is the BOMB! Looks awsome. So I take it no one has pulled the trigger? Biplanes traditionally don't do sequence work to well do they?

No price/date released on the Oracle scheme just yet - I'll let you know when I hear anything.

There have been a couple of biplanes in the F3A world so they can't be that bad

shoot,
Color scheams aside, I wanna know how this airplane flys. No takers yet? I can't believe no one has one. Can't wait to see it a the JR challenge. Perhaps Andreas will grace our presence again flying one? Love to pony up to the TX for some stick time, not mode I though :-(
