Sibwings Pitts Released (payware)

Screenshot looks great! How are the flight dynamics and does it feel like an aerobatic plane?
 
In restrictions of my Settings, Stick and the FSX, quite nice.

I see their repaint for G-REAP, is not correct. They improvised the graphic on the left side of the vertical fin/rudder.
 
Yoyo unfortunately the comp closed sometime ago...here's a couple of NZ schemes included in the package

How is the Aerobatic capability of this one ?

Stalls, Spins, hammerheads etc

I thought the Addictive Sims was supposed to have the best Pitts flight model? ie you can spin etc

I was just thinking of shelling out the funds for it today but here you are tossing it away??!!

This one is that good?

(I have the Alabeo one btw)

I second this. Pretty screenshots are nice. But, what about the flight model? How does it fly? Can it spin? Can it slip? Can it hammerhead? Can it do a snap roll?

Has anyone put it through some serious acrobatic maneuvers?
 
My understanding is that Andrey of SibWings said he was doing it.

He did the Safir X - in which the rudder in flat turn goes a little the correct way then back the wrong way (threads on here about this).

He also did the initial Bird Dog which after much "discussion" got instead redone by Alexander (third party) instead.

To my mind this leaves the addictive pitts as "likely" the best FDE from the info I have read but the Alabeo and Sibwings pitts are newer and have possibly visual advantages.

I want to learn hammerheads and things and have just found out even my RealAir Decathlon cannot do them properly.

Not sure actually what can? Perhaps no real difference between the FDE of the three pitts?

I would like to know too.

I haven't had any issues with the Sibwings Pitts in doing hammerheads, spins, or knife edge. In my opinion it's has the best fde's of any Pitts out there at the moment. Never could get into the Addictive Pitts, just didn't like the fde's or vc.

Yep - agreed
 
Started first repaint - must say that the repaint kit is great but only available for the single seat version at the moment.

Oh dear. Things are very quite on the Sibwings Pitts forum. I have found what appears to be a glitch with the details layering (so i cant progress with the paint i have shown above) and no one has been there, apart from me, for a few days now.
