Default RE: Jamara Spitfire60 ARTF

ORIGINAL: rc34074

this looks like the sportsman arf spit that hobby people sells. they have them on sale this month for $150.

englishmac- what covering is on this plane? is it available for repairs or if you make modifications to the plane? if i got this plane i would put spring sir retracts in it so might need some covering. then there is the possibility of damage for whatever reason.

have you flown this plane? if so how many flights? how does it fly?

do they show you where the wheel wels are? do the retracts go toward the fuse or away?

2100 grams is about 4.6 lb. nice and light i think.

are you associated with jamara, or just promoting a plane that you like?

thanks

The covering is Oracover or Profilm as it's called here in the UK. It's no problem to buy spare rolls of this stuff which is available in most colours including silver grey and dark green etc. And you can always prime the surface and add your own colour mixes.


Fitting spring retracts should not present a problem with minor recovering afterwards.

With retracts and full gear plus my .91 4-stroke I estimate the all uip weight around 115 - 120 ozs.

I am not associated with Jamara. I am presently building this model for myself![8D]
