Looks good. Good luck with the maiden, make sure you balance it right. I flew once more in the weekend and it was still way too nose heavy. I really run out of elevator throw despite high landing speed. It went fine but I did not fly again until I fix the CG. It will be quite nose heavy with landing gear down, so check both up/down balance.

If anyone has THE top flite spitfire spinner (5”) my buddy wyoturbine is looking for one. We are hoping someone may have one laying around. Pm myself or wyoturbine.

Look at True Turn for the spinner because they made them for the ARF’s as well.
I have a Spitfire style CF/Aluminum spinner but it’s not 5”, it’s smaller.

Hi, I was give a used TG giant Spitfire arf fuselage from someone's crash.
I can build a wing.

Would anyone have saved the wing ribs or traced the rib outlines from a crash?

Thanks - ken k
