Of course I did. Beautifully done! Mine got a paint job today as you've seen and tonight if I find energy I'll do the decals, and maybe maiden it tomorrow afternoon again .

@CarolineTyler - very smooth flying - another spitfire pro!

what gear and prop did you end up with?

I realise that just watching someone fly a maiden can be a bit boring. Most people don't push it to much. Thought it would be fun to add a little to the soundtrack. 😉

It's using the SunnySky 2216 turning an 8x6 with a 2200mAh 4S battery. Loads of power, climbs easily on 40% throttle and vertically accelerates on full power.
