• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. 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.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. 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.

I spent a week in December going to Chandler Air to get some basic aerobatic training. I seemed to get the timing down on doing hammerheads in their Great Lakes planes. When I got home I tried to do them in my Acroduster One and kept ending up inverted. The timing at the turn for the Great Lakes was rudder, wait, full opposite aileron and then immeadiately a little forward stick. Should I put aileron in quicker or more or less forward stick? I have read Michael Goulians books ( multiple times) but it doesn't talk much about differences between planes. Any help?
