Ready to Fly Spitfire

The Ready to Fly Spitfire is certainly the aircraft that started me wanting to fly RC models. Flying the spitfire is excellent. The roll rate is very good and she’s very responsive especially on the rudder, THE LANDING GEAR IS REMOVABLE SO YOU CAN FLY HER CLEAN. The spitfire as a model has a reputation for been very difficult to land and fly slowly, This is true! You need to do no slow speed turns and on landing, keep the speed up and just make small corrections, other than this she’s an absolute joy - I can tell you that I would be jumping up and down with joy if I received this as a gift - if I was 10 or 70 years old

As with all our ready to fly model we stock spares and advice is only a email away

RTF RC Scale Model Spitfire £140.00 Inc. UK Mainland Delivery

When flying this plane, you have a feeling of hunting down ME-109’s in the skies over Britain. Its built right, it flies extremely well!!

The Model is powered by a 370 electric motor through a gearbox spinning a large propeller, this give long flight times and a flying speed that looks right

The model is made from styrene foam this is amazing stuff - more brittle than the EPP foams but it allows much more detail to be moulded in - This all brings it to life yet in the event of a crash its easy to repair with either 5 min Araldite or PVA wood glue

Included is high quality 4 ch radio control set with all the servos- Its a “real Rc set” and can be removed and reused in other models. The Model requires basic assembly which is easy
