Pretty late to the party but am considering buying this plane. I have a thing for spitfires and this one, catches my attention. What are your guys thoughts on the stock setup? Any upgrades/modifications needed out of the box?
flying_low, this plane is probably my very best flying fighter compliments of it's extra tail feathers that are easy to get used to; I did sand a little off the back top area of the rudder to make it look a little more like full scale shape. I have a "thing" about tails, sorry about that. In stock condition you have very nice scale like flying performance. Installing a 40 Amp ESC and using a 12X8 E ACP provides all the vertical performance I could ever dream of needing.
There is vastly more than meets the eyes with this most beautiful all possible fighter planes. Please check out the "post signaure" above and, hopefully, here if I can get my mouse to work like it should.
Chucksolo makes a good point. I (blush) crashed on my maiden because I failed to have sufficient up elevator trim, and by the time I figured out my problem the ship was already spread out over the soccer field I had been flying on.
Out.
