In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction).

Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

Help me out on this one boys...please. If the ailerons on the S1 are rigged for up 25 degrees down 23 degrees, what are the travel angles when you are sitting in it? I understand that it would vary dependent on pilot size but how much travel angle is needed to fly the pitts to its full potential?
