Default RE: GP combat Spitfire

Just back from the field. The Spitfire flies great. No trim, everything worked excellent. It is very sensative to the controls, so leave them conservative on the elevator. I was spot on the CG but had to add lead to do so. I think the RX battery needs to be moved back. I also used a heavy aluminum spinner. My all up weight was only 2.5 lbs. so I just lived with adding some lead to the tail.
All the way around this little plane is a pleasure and everyone at the field had great comments about it. I suppose someone will find some use from these posts whether anyone feels the need to chime in or not. I would really like to see an FW190 come out. I would be the first in line for that one.
