Title: Flylog - Supermarine Spitfire Rcpilotacro Post by: rcpilotacro on December 25, 2016, 03:19:28 PM This thread is dedicated to one of my favourite warbird. Supermarine spitfire (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermarine_Spitfire), the real one always intrigued me and had an opportunity to sit in it, , what a commanding view from the aeroplane.
Build is fairly simple (time consuming but) thanks to the helping hand of sandy, we put together in two days. Initially it flew with OS0.75 four stroke, wasn't happy, changed over to OS 61 LA with 11x5.5 prop, flies well now. it has 2 servos each on ailerons, flaps, retracts and one servo each on throttle, elev & rudder It will have some more additions, which you will see (http://www.rcindia.org/gas-glow-nitro-planes/flylog-supermarine-spitfire-rcpilotacro/?action=dlattach;attach=727475;image) (http://www.rcindia.org/gas-glow-nitro-planes/flylog-supermarine-spitfire-rcpilotacro/?action=dlattach;attach=727481;image) Currently I am grappling with the mechanical retracts, working on some options Title: Re: Flylog - Supermarine Spitfire Rcpilotacro Post by: rcpilotacro on December 25, 2016, 10:35:11 PM Here is the video, ran out of fuel, did dead stick landing, perfect touchdown (well nearly:) )
