Overview
The FMS PITTS V2 1.4M Front Landing Gear Mounting Plate (FMSRY110) is an essential replacement and upgrade component for owners of the FMS Pitts V2 1.4-metre aerobatic RC aircraft. This precision-engineered mounting plate is designed specifically to support the front landing gear assembly on your Pitts V2, ensuring reliable ground handling and stable takeoff and landing operations. Whether you're an experienced RC pilot looking to maintain your aircraft in top condition or upgrading an existing setup, this genuine FMS component delivers the quality and compatibility you need.
The Pitts V2 is renowned in the RC flying community for its exceptional aerobatic performance and realistic biplane design, making it a favourite among intermediate and advanced RC aircraft enthusiasts across the UK and beyond. The front landing gear mounting plate is a critical structural component that connects your landing gear assembly to the fuselage, bearing the weight of the aircraft during ground operations and the impact forces during landing.

This replacement mounting plate offers the perfect solution if your original plate has been damaged through normal wear and tear, accidental impact during landing, or if you're simply upgrading to improve the durability and reliability of your aircraft. FMS spare parts are manufactured to the same exacting standards as the original components, ensuring perfect fit and finish with your existing Pitts V2 airframe.
