So is there any updates on assembling this beautiful Rebel Pro from anyone?
Just waiting for the next container to arrive at Carf with mine.

Helping a friend with a build... can anyone share their surface throws on the rebel pro? Low rate and high rate?

This is the short manual given to me by rep Mike McConville, which should answer the essential questions as to how to set up the Pro and Max aircraft. I had to copy and paste sorry.

You can go to B&E graphics has an area you can type in the phrase and go through all the Fonts they have. Should get the correct this way.

Thanks Andy! I'm on there now found some similar ones but not the exact yet. I'm wondering if its not kind of a custom font made only for Pirotti/CARF

It may not even be a font, just a vector they designed in Corel or whatever

Nice photos of your Pro, how was the power with the 210Jetsmunt? What is the elevation your flying at I'm curious to know?

Power is perfect, I try not to fly overly fast anyway, but the vertical is effortless and aerobatics can be as big as you like.
obviously I cant comment on the 180n flight characteristics but I am very happy with the 210

I am in the UK so elevation is not really a factor, we are basically at sea level.

Good to know about the power and flight characteristics. My elevation is 3400 ft so there's about 15% thrust lost up here so I will be going with a 240Swiwin as the Jetsmunt is a few hundred more.
I already have a Carf Viper and love the flying characteristics with a Munts 166 and it also flies aerobatics very well so the Rebel is a natural step.
The shipment for my Pro should be in at the end of Feburary . Thanks

No I don’t have smoke at the moment, although I am considering fitting a Powerbox pump over the winter

good luck with your build, it’s a brilliant kit and goes together really well, you will love it

Carf has upgraded theirs from a rubber pung stop to the screw in the Carlos uses but it's a five-litre, with cmjets you can get a five or the six-litre which they also use in the Rebel Max.
I'm going with a 240 Swiwin motor with my high altitude I treated myself to the six-litre tank, and it's huh in length.
I received mine the other day and Carlos did an excellent job will adding a few decals under the epoxy finish just to make it very professional looking.
The decals of Rebel Pro and his logo plus I asked for a JetA logo and Jeti logo with the wind sock and it looks great.
