Absolutely brilliant scale looking flight. Very well done. Ive been flying RC Planes eversince May 1986 and ive never ever once owned or flown a model Spitfire. But after watching this video i was so impressed, so im going to order this plane. Thanks for sharing.
Hello RRC , I have never seen Spitfire fly so stable with no critical situation in the permanent stall testing. Fantastic warbird driven by a very capable (premium) RC pilot. I appreciate and thank you for sharing.
Don't try that with her little 1200mm sister. Was trying to avoid an obstacle got her too slow down tipped the wing, and she spun straight into the ground. Cost me $100.00 to put all back together again.LOL
Best RC Spitfire video on TH-cam. This has to be one of the best - if not THE best - off the shelf scale spitfire there is. The flying was very scale and your camera operating skills are excellent too! Well done!
3 years on, how do you rate this, Thinking about getting it. Will be my first plane, Not first time flying, Fly Drones an 3d Heli's Watched the build vid and helpful, do love watching this in the air
We all wanted to call us "Spitfire RC Pilot", which was an unofficial title for all capable RC flyers. After coming to the market of this Spifire Flightline 1600 this title is lost because this Spit flies easily and leaves all the pilot ''mistakes'' (see 7:45) Thanks so much to RRC.
Great flight. In regards to the lipo you use, the video said 6s 5100mah 75C. I looked at your website but the largest I found is 6S 5200mah (DP5200XP35-6S), 35C
+Oscar Mok we have just sold the last 75c and are currently making amendments to the website due to price increases the product should be back on the website in a couple of days.sorry for this
I severely doubt you will need a high C pack for this model; given it has an 80A ESC max current at full power will be ~70A, and that is only 14C on a 5000 pack. I would recommend the Zippy Compact 5000s, they have been good for me in my F3A Sebart Miss Wind.
Another point - according to the description flights of >10 mins are possible on a 6S 5000, so (assuming at least 20% capacity needs to be left in your battery on touchdown) that means an average current draw of 6x4 = 24A = ~5C. Not exactly demanding!
The reason for the high c rating is only for center of gravity. our 35c will not balance in this model without adding lead to the nose. the 75c is 820grams and needs to be pushed all the way forward to achieve the center of gravity.the bonus is they will work in the 90mm edfs aswell as they draw 128 amps. With a zippy compact you will need to add 120 grams of lead to the nose,
Wow. Ive never liked the old model war birds. I love the general aviation planes and starting to like the edf jets. Now I came across this model and I'm hooked. I love the size too and now that I want this plane it's out of stock😰.
What kind of receiver did you set up to fly this model? I'm looking to purchase one myself, and am thinking of fitting it with the Admiral RX600SP 6-Channel DSMX Compatible Receiver with Stability Plus Gyro. I'd like to hear recomendations if you have any. Keep up the great work! Cheers.
After 4 years still one of the very best Flightline Spitfire demo flights!
Its a shame I no longer get any models to review. But planning to change this over to doing non sponsored builds and flying vids
@@REDSRADIOCONTROL Sounds great Thomas, look forward to your future videos!
You fly this so gracefully and scale. Just as they should be flown. Amazing model and a great pilot. 👍👍👍

Spitfire forever! Damn this video was hypnotic. Awesome piloting. And kudos to the camera operator for following so elegantly.
One of the best model landings I've ever seen there, you really greased it in as per the full size...👍
Fantastic looking spitfire,, that 4 blade looks good all that's missing is the sound of the merlin engine
Yes I agree Daniel, fly pasts just not the same when model sounds like hoover with wings :).
So refreshing to see rc warbird flown at scale speed instead of unrealistically fast.

wow i watched this 12 times , still not old - great plane , flown with skill
Pretty amazing, flew and looked like a real thing!
Wow! Quite impressive indeed. That is a very stable aircraft. The landing was classic.
I must agree what a beautiful aircraft & great flying
Really nice flight, and a very nice model. Foam has come a long way!
super, super nice scale flight
Fantastic flight!! Very scale and graceful flight of an old graceful warbird. Makes me think I might want one these.
Excellent flight! Love those super-realistic huge loops. One of the most scale RC flights of Spitfire I've seen.
Kudos on your flying man!! Really good to see a nice example of a well controlled flight.
Great flying and a lovely model. Thanks for sharing
This flight is a pleasure to watch ! Excellent skills of scale flying ☺ thank you for posting it buddy
This was an amazing flight. Great landing. Congratulations
Very nice take off, nice flying.
Great demo and beautifully flown!
Classy flying!
Great video guys if I didnt know this was an RC model, I would have mistaken it for a Real Spitfire. Id love one of these
beautiful scale flight .. I'm waiting for mine to arrive .. lovely landing too ..
Thomas ! That was one hell of a flight you made there :-) You fly it, the way I whant to fly my mk 9 for sure ;-)
very nice flight, this video with some good music this video could be commercial for this plane, easily
Awesome flight!! just ordered one, hope I have the same flight experiences
Very nice, if you can get one. Uk seems to have been forgotten by manufacturers.
That is finesse. Excellent job sir. You may have just sold me on it.
Nice demo. Thanks for sharing .

Sweet grease job on the landing!

absolutely gorgeous!
The filming got better! cows mooing cracked me up
+Mckaylund Tuttle i will ask the cows to stop mooing next time 😋
Mckaylund Tuttle thought I heard some sheep on this
+K B that you will have done the downside to having a site in the countryside you just cant get away from them 😁
I wonder about the camera and lens you used and tripod? Please be so kind to let me know:)
I want one! With engine sound effects.
What kind of receiver did you set up to fly this model? I'm looking to purchase one myself, and am thinking of fitting it with the Admiral RX600SP 6-Channel DSMX Compatible Receiver with Stability Plus Gyro.
I'd like to hear recomendations if you have any. Keep up the great work! Cheers.
+Smelly Shrub97 I use futaba but used an 7ch futaba.
I would be keen to know what your control surface throws and expo settings are for this flight.
+Rodger Chalk control throws are as per the book. And expo at - 20%
Did you use the flap to elevator mix?
what flight times do you get??
On a 6s 5200 hard flying gave me 4-6 mins but scale flying I had my timer set at 10mins
How long for your shipment of models arrive?
+Allan Knights end of the first week of july.
Just needs a speaker with the sound of the Merlin
it sounds line a jet engine almost
So small noise!
wheres the proper CG
i have my CG set as per the manaul at 90mm from the LE
I guess the plane is not very stable turning to the right
