Hello All,
I am gathering info on how I should build my new I-struts for my Pitts. It's an S-1S that has the M-6 (C model) wings on it for racing at Reno. I would like them as small and aerodynamic as possible because this is a race plane only and doesn't do hard akro. The wings are set at O angle of incidence and I would like the bottom wings to have no more than 1 degree dihedral. It also appears that I have enough threads left on the flying/landing wires to make the I-stuts longer to accomplish this. I have some ideas already, but I would welcome any input from our master builders on this forum.
Thank You Everyone,
Scott
