RE: Please direct me to an online store that will ship a SIG kit to Australia

Happy to help. If you are not successful with them, also try Airsail, another kiwi company that handles Sig kits.

RE: Please direct me to an online store that will ship a SIG kit to Australia

Try here. http://www.the436modelshop.co.nz

Prices and stock levels are on the website and the Aussie dollar is always way stronger than the Kiwi. Goods usually arrive in a couple of days.

RE: Electric 1/4 Spitfire MK1A full composite

Actually, the sound of the undercarraige hitting the ground on landing sounds very much like the typical popping and crackling a Merlin makes when throttled back. Have a closer listen to the video.

The Spitfire, the video and the pilot who flew the model in a very Spitfire like manner are all simply outstanding. With a pilot on board and maybe a slightly slower turn after landing this would...

Adverse yaw and dihedral are entirely different subjects.
