I bought the P-47 and Spitfire airframes and put in my own gear (you know I have issue with the stock gear on the NP models although these seem to have decent equipment). I got the Spitfite first and have a lot of flights on it. On one of the first flights I got it too slow into a headwind and it dropped from the sky from about 35-40 feet up and landed right on her nose. Broke the prop and the ailerons and rudder hinges let go. Other than a few small wrinkles in the foam there was no apparent damage. Another time I misjudged her distance from a set of bleachers that were in the middle of the field and smacked right into them on landing. Broken prop and dented foam. A little spackle and paint and good a new. Easy to fly, easy to fix, looks great. I'm thinking a Corsair and I'm done shopping for a while.

I have the 800mm Spitfite airframe and it flies great too.
