Nitroplane,
The Spitfire was maidened today. I kept it light, and it flies great. So easy to fly, a beginner can probably fly it. One bad thing, however, is that if I had installed a glow engine per instruction manual, the plane would have been super tail heavy. I would have had to add 32 oz of nose weight in order to balance the plane. Instead, I used a 26cc gasoline engine and moved it 6 inches forward. Yes, the plane doesn't look scale anymore, but its lower wing loading more than make up for that. I hope you pass this info on to the factory because I want to buy more CMP planes in the future.
