Crack Pitts M12: 30-Inch EPP Standard Biplane Series
Designed by Cody Wojcik, the Crack Pitts combines the proven low-speed performance of the Crack Yak with Cody’s extensive F3P biplane experience. The result is a smooth, precise, and highly capable EPP biplane with excellent stability and the responsive control needed for advanced 3D aerobatics.
The reinforced biplane structure provides excellent rigidity without complicated external wing bracing. Lightweight printed EPP, pre-hinged control surfaces, and laser-cut control horns help simplify assembly while creating a durable model suited for regular 3D practice.

My first Twisted model
I gave this a 4 stars since i've never built or flown a EPP model before. Instructions were good though I wasn't sure which glue to use so i used welders over beacon, next time i will use beacon glue. Flight times are shorter then i hoped. Enjoy the way it looks in the air, thinking of getting the smaller size next.
