An E-Flite Stearman PT-17 with a Power 15. Should be ready in 3 weeks or so. It's a beautiful biplane, I saw one a few weeks ago and had to have one!

Looks great! I have never seen one up close.
Please let us know what you think of it when you fly it! Kent

Good looking plane! I always wanted a bipe. Be sure to give us a flight report!

I have 3 flights on her now and I have no hesitation in saying that the Stearman is the best plane I have ever flown. Solid, stable and extremely scale-looking in the air. Highly recommended!! Here's a vid of my 3rd flight taken this morning.

Sharp lookin' bipe, Colin. And it's just screaming for a pilot bust, but I guess that'd throw off the CG in a big way.

Yes, it really needs a pilot. It shouldn't affect the CG too much. Eflite makes some nice ones that are scale.

Wow that looks great in the air! The blue and yellow contrast perfectly.
