PITTS Special C1 1:2 Basic Kit

The Basic KIT is the cheapest way to start a model building project. It consists of all the CNC cut wood parts needed to assemble the model. The modeler can purchase the remaining parts as the project progresses. This is the easiest way to match the investment to the build time.

Features:

• Computer-generated kits, using 3D software and 99% real scale model fidelity.
• Designed reproducing many real details that can be developed by scale builder himself.
• Developed kits for several skill scale builders, from beginners to professionals, with a medium flight skill.
• Top quality materials used. Balsa wood, poplar, beech wood, light plywood, pine, etc.
• All needed metal parts are available. More than 200 pieces in steel sheet, fully laser cut.
• Approx 700 wooden parts, on several densities, fully precision CNC milled cut.
• Lightened parts in order to achieve reduced weight, keeping a good structural resistance.
• Accurate matched parts, that requires minimal adjustments, without possibility of making assembly mistakes.
• It is not necessary precision tools for built and align the different model parts. Its developed construction system, allow you to build the model easily, with accuracy.
• Easy and quick building system characterised by the use of tongued-and-groove type connections between involved parts. Full size planes are not required.
• Step-by-step assembling instructions, with many images and schemes.
• Designed for many transport requirements. It can be disassembled in several main parts, for example in fuselage, half wings, coupled wings, tail, main gear, and so on.
• Designed with large access doors, as similar as possible to real plane, to get easy access to electronics, tanks and periodic maintenance.
• Pre-located servo installation system and electronics, easily adaptable to builder preferences.
• Quickly assembly time in airfield, 30 minutes estimated if a minimum of transportation room is available in your car (sport wagon car type).
• Several kit options are available for fitting builder construction preferences.
• Designed, made, built and flight a prototype, before being placed on the market.
• Very good flight performances.
• Made in Spain, by scale builders for scale builders.

Contents of the kit:

• Step-by-step instructions and photos on USB stick.
• CNC machined parts in various materials and thicknesses. Light plywood, balsa, poplar, birch.

Requirements construction and transportation:

• Building experience: MEDIUM
• Flying experience: GOOD AVERAGE.
• Build Time: From unpacking to first flight, not including scale details and finishing: for an intermediate level of build experience and considering 12-15 hours per week, the total build time is estimated at 4-5 months (Possible scale finishing is not considered).
• Parts that can be disassembled for transport: Fuselage, landing gear, wing halves, elevator vertical stabilizer.

Specifications:

• Upper wingspan: 3,054 mm
• Bottom wingspan: 3.054 mm
• Up Mean Aerodynamic chord: 520 mm
• Low Mean Aerodynamic chord: 520 mm
• Length (without propeller): 2,704 mm
• Height: 1000 mm
• Wing surface (both wings): 317.7 dm²
• Total surface: 473,7 dm²

Total weights:

• Superlight version: <25 kg possible depending on motorrization and build quality.
• Without scale details and paint: ~27 kg
• With scale details and paint: ~29 kg

Wing area loads:

• Superlight version: 52.8 gr/ dm²
• Without scale details and paint: 57,0 gr/ dm²
• With scale details and paint: 61,22 gr/ dm²

Necessary weight to reach the center of gravity:. ~5.5 kg (Including drive, batteries, etc.) A heavy motor reduces the lead allowance. Basically, build as light as possible in the rear and as heavy as possible in the front. The center of gravity lies in the area of the average wing depth: approx. 33%.

Equipment:

• Engine: from 180 cc to 240 cc gasoline engine

Recommended motors:

• ZDZ 195 B2RV J/JS CHAMPION For scale and 3D flight.
• ROTO 170 FS for scale flight
• Servos:

Motor: 1 x standard 12kg Starter and/or choke: 1 x standard 12kg(optional) Elevator 4 x 20 kg minimum torque Rudder: 2 x 35 kg minimum torque Aileron: 8 x 30 kg minimum torque

Remote control: From 5 channels depending on the equipment of the model. Tank capacity: depending on the engine 800ml bid 1.000 ml gasoline + 500 ml smoke oil.

Other equipment:

• Battery switch
• Smoke pump
