Hi Dave, good seeing you here, I'm kinda curious too, would anyone comment between comparf and yellow?

Happy Holidays,
Barry

Merry XMAS & Happy New Year to all of my Sptifire Bros & their family!

Phat, You might as well do a couple of extra scale items on the cockpit while you have it apart. I added a gunsight to my H9 Spitfire and am thinking of doing a couple of other minor cockpit details while I'm waiting for the gear legs to come for my electric retracts. the rear view mirror is a real ***** to manufacture, and fragile. I may not put that on this one.

Phat Reliant

That's a good idea for the canopy matey, I have been looking at other builds for ideas. Just not sure if I want to go the whole nine yards with this one, I may do a Leroy and stick a pilot in with a moving head

Hi, Dougb1
Checkout the spitfire cockpit kits at Iflytailies.com, they have some very detailed cockpits at a very reasonable price.

Barry, we think way too much alike! I am hoping to start hitting some of the war-bird events this next year....

Anyway, can someone give me an idea on pricing for the Yellow version?

Thanks!

InboundLZ

My Feedback: (10)

Also, those going with the Yellow kit...what are you using for a power plant?

InboundLZ,
Here is the link to Yellow Airplane website below. I think this will give you info on their Spitfire kit!!

The DA-50 is the perfect match for the yellow spitfire.

Anyone have a dl50or da50 laying around you would sell, stuff on RCU is high.
Thanks

Phat, that Yellow Spit kit looks great.
Yeah, the Leroy head mod is pretty simple to do and cool looking. You could do the waving arm at the same time..

Phat Reliant

Albsurfer, if I do well with this TF Spit, then the Yellow AC one is my next.
The Comp-ARF is also a good looking bird, but out of my price range by the time you get it to fly.

albsurfer

Phat Reliant, I saw some posts for the Yellow, which looks fantastic. Someone also showed their COMP-Arf which looked amazing, but yes, EXPENSIVE for the kit and to outfit. Hope you find the Yellow kit at a good price.

What about an electric conversion on the Yellow Spit? Thoughts?

I saw this bird perform and it was very impressive.

Yes, definitely!!! Why not?
Here is a video of an electric COMP ARF Spitfire from Australia. It is bigger than the Yellow and works just fine.
It is a short clip from a seven minute flight.

Go for it.
