This thread is dedicated to one of my favourite warbird. Supermarine spitfire, the real one always intrigued me and had an opportunity to sit in it, , what a commanding view from the aeroplane.

Build is fairly simple (time consuming but) thanks to the helping hand of sandy, we put together in two days. Initially it flew with OS0.75 four stroke, wasn't happy, changed over to OS 61 LA with 11x5.5 prop, flies well now. it has 2 servos each on ailerons, flaps, retracts and one servo each on throttle, elev & rudder

It will have some more additions, which you will see




Currently I am grappling with the mechanical retracts, working on some options

Here is the video, ran out of fuel, did dead stick landing, perfect touchdown (well nearly:) )

Gusty flying my Spitfire. (2014?)
Inverted!

haha I remember doing that, i did that to this Spit too, maiden flight with an underpowerred engine and almost touched down inverted

 

Some hot landing, that

Very well landing gusty sir
