Now swap that prop to an 8x6 and bump up to 4SThat plane is a lot of fun. It flies way better than I do.You said it was the one to learn to fly inverted with, and you weren't wrong! She's got a SunnySky X2216-8 1250kv motor, APC 9x6 prop and a 3s 2200mAh batt. It seems like the perfect combination for her.
super fun flying!!!
Oh, there will come a day!Now swap that prop to an 8x6 and bump up to 4S
Haha - that and a power pack c v2 are my next goal😉Now swap that prop to an 8x6 and bump up to 4S
Thanks! Should be able to work in the Spitfire again starting this evening.
You're going to love it! It's a pretty amazing plane to fly.
Oh yeah!
Assuming one already has coffee? Yes.
It's a distinct possibility.
If you've been following since the beginning, you saw how sketchy my first couple flights were. The Spitfire was just much more responsive and slippery than I was accustomed to. A few hard landings later, and I'm feeling pretty comfortable with it, though crashing is definitely still an option!
) but it really was ultimately pilot error. The glow from the receiver light makes it look like it's on fire...
Ooops ,Well I flew mine today too. I successfully did an inverted hand launch! Then half a min. into the flight, dissaster struck... I was comeing in for a long inverted dive and didn't pull out of it quick enough. I can blame it on a lot of things, such as flying a completely brown plane after the sun had set (NOT a good idea!
YupOoops ,
It does look like a easy repair though
Ouch that looks epic! I took out my Spitfire as well twice over the last two days. Once yesterday and the other today! Yesterday wasn't all that great and I crashed hard pretty fast after trying to do some manuveur. Broke the wing tip, totaled the firewall and had ripped out the front wing support. Today on the other hand was great, flew two batteries and just had a prefect outing, don't have it on video thoughWell I flew mine today too. I successfully did an inverted hand launch!

. Will post the video of yesterday's outting when I have a chance to edit the footage.

Spitfires are pretty tough. I have had mine looking worse than this more than once. I agree with Wildthing, a little glue and support and she can fly again.Well I flew mine today too.
