Tower just posted a new Pheonix 95" spitfire.
TowerHobbies.com | Phoenix Model 1:4 3/4 Spitfire GP/EP ARF
I've put an order in for it as it looks pretty nice and also very 'cost effective'.
It comes with retracts and spinner:
I've always heard bad stuff about gear supplied gear and, looking at the manual, the spinner appears to be plastic.
This plane is very light for a 95" plane and hoping the gear is strong enough for it.
As for spinners, it may be difficult to find a matching aluminum one.
Need opinions on Phoenix models, gear and spinner.
thanks,
sam
