Finally one large scale with acceptable (price) Spitfire ... the details are impressive and the only remarks are on the final foam processing (edges,stickers). Thanks Avios and Steve.
Excellent video my friend!!!. Very informative and entertaining. And a big thanks for taking time out to do this. If I buy one, I'm blaming you....even if I don't fly it myself. All the very best.
Some comments. The stickers are awfully and will peal the paint if you are not very careful. I found out the hard way that they are not water slide. I also have a 1100 mm Spit and wish I had built that one first for the learning experience. Th junction box connection is a little trick. Thanks again.
Good job Steve! I am just about done building mine and LOVE seeing how the finished product looks and flies. I have a new favorite plane in my hangar with this big ole Spit! lol
Help - I need a replacement prop and they are out of stock, could also used a replacement tail wheel set and a spinner but they are also out of stock. Do you know of any other props that would work or where I can get some parts? I looked on ebay and amazon - no luck I searched on part numbers on google - no luck I acquired this plane used and have not flown it yet. The prop blades were badly bent - I've made some improvement but they still have some wobble.
I was wondering which spitfire is better and if there any major differences between them, i am talking about flightline, eflight, avios and dynam. Also is there any chance of putting an fov camera inside the cockpit and closing the canopy on top?
Hi. Great model, I to think add this one... thank you... I love flight my MX2 and the Bix3 almost all weekend and publish my videos about what a I learn with him and all can learn too... Be welcome and again, thanks very much for this review, best regards!
Great review and build and a magnificently detailed scale representation of the spitfire, my only criticism with the plane is there are no Frize ailerons, thats a shame! the Frise aileron reduces adverse yaw and helps keep the plane co-originated in turns and rolls, yes you can use differential throws but its not the same, Otherwise looks great.
will be nice once all the parts as spares are available 99.9% .mainly the elevator actuator that the elevator halfs go through that the pushrod pushes the elevator ???? not available > should be with the spare push rod sets you would think .right
Yeah all very well and good, now hobbyking had left Australia they have shot themselves in the foot and I'm so disappointed. Now yes it's a nice plane and one I want. But it's $650 to buy now. Yes the planes $383 au but it's $267 postage which is ridiculous. Thanks hobbyking I'm so disappointed.
Apologies and we are working to improve shipping rates to AU and NZ in light of recent changes. Thank you again for your feedback and for bringing this to our attention
Here he says 12 gram servos th-cam.com/video/W6tsZ3lshIE/w-d-xo.html Here he says 17 gram and 9 gram servos, no mention of 12 gram th-cam.com/video/W6tsZ3lshIE/w-d-xo.html Not that big of a deal but those discrepancies should not make it into a Product Profile, in my opinion. I mean, that's pretty basic sh1t. Are they 12 gram or not? Cmon man
Viewing for the first time. Great video and glad I did the review before building. This is a great looking model. Thanks.

I haven't flown R/C for a number of years now, but I have to say that this plane would sorely tempt me to make a return to the hobby.

All the very best.
Thanks for watching!
I love spitfire Mk5 !

Wow, very impressive attention to detail.
I really want one of these!. All that was missing from this video was the roar of the Rolls Royce Merlin. Bloody marvellous.
Looks great 👌
Thank you! Cheers!

Looks like i want one of these puppies 👍👍
Have thought about getting into RC aircraft, now I see a desert scene Mk Vb tropical, perfect for a Defender of Malta
Thanks so much for your suggestions, please help us fill in the survey bit.ly/2Ic7AqV
please where can i buy that cool wooden stand? thanks
Help - I need a replacement prop and they are out of stock,
could also used a replacement tail wheel set
and a spinner but they are also out of stock.
Do you know of any other props that would work
or where I can get some parts?
I looked on ebay and amazon - no luck
I searched on part numbers on google - no luck
I acquired this plane used and have not flown it yet.
The prop blades were badly bent - I've made some improvement but they still have some wobble.
This is a very nice model. They produce a FW-190 or ME-109 in that quality? That would be great!

Beatifyl product. Good job hobbyking!
I'm getting hands on my first RC plane for rookie first, and then maybe this beauty will be my final goal.
Great video! What is the flying time for this model?

Thanks for the feedback!
Are the FPV devices included or must be purchased separately at HK?
all FPV gear needs to be purchased separately.
What is size for spinner??? 3 inch or 3.5 inch?
this is one of the most scale details foam plane on the market, shame that is it just foam
will be nice once all the parts as spares are available 99.9% .mainly the elevator actuator that the elevator halfs go through that the pushrod pushes the elevator ???? not available > should be with the spare push rod sets you would think .right
Make a mk1 in his size 👍

Love the plane, ... hate the presenters take on how to say "DEECAL".
Here he says 12 gram servos th-cam.com/video/W6tsZ3lshIE/w-d-xo.html
