RE: New composite spitfire
This looks a very interesting Kit indeed .... I would be interested to know how much it is here in the UK...who's retracts are people using etc...
I like the way there is no visable join of the wing to the Fuz. ! and the detail on the wing / Fuz saves a lot of time adding it.
Please someone tell me how much to the UK [
]
Thanks
Wayne

RE: New composite spitfire
ORIGINAL: sandseeker
1: 5.5 Scale 80in wingspan,billed as an ARF, approx 30 hrs work for the previous kit of this a/c that required the wings in 3 pieces joining and covering.I guess you could have this fully composite everthing, ailerons surface hinged, wings ,stabs plug-in flying after 15-20 hrs.
Very impressed so far with the quality/lightness of components (designer gives wt as 7.5 to 8.5 kg dry)
I intend to fit mvvs 26 gas motor (designer recomends 20-32 2 stroke and 20-30 cc 4 stroke power)
Surface moulded detail is the best I have seen in a moulded kit (aviation design produce very fine turbine and D/F kits see their web site(the ARF Spit is not there just the older kit on which its baced)
I have a lot of projects on the go but hopefully this will be flying soon. I have the YT Spit pictured as well but the product is miles behind the AD one.

RE: New composite spitfire
Hi Wayne, check the date on my post .. the comp yt did not exist at that time . I compared the AD to the Yt that I had side by side.
Now, my AD Spit is still not on the work bench due to meddling with turbines etc but it will be started soon. I have gone with the YS 160 dingo for power and Behotec C36 retracts. I would say the quality of the kit is better than the Chinese product, just my opinion though, you check them out and you decide where you spend your hard earned cash. New Yt int products do look nice in the pics...don't have the time,space or cash to compare them against the latest AD Spitfire kit.

RE: New composite spitfire
Hallo Leute,
entschuldigt, dass ich auf Deutsch schreibe, aber mein Englisch ist nicht so gut.
Auch ich habe die Spitfire von Aviation Design gebaut.
Hier ein Link zu meiner Spitfire im Warbirdforum:

... und hier noch Bilder vom Roll-Out:

Ich würde hier gerne Bilder einstellen, weiss aber noch nicht wie das geht. Vielleicht kann mir ja jemand weiterhelfen.
Liebe Grüße
Wadl
