Don't wake a Tiger until you've factored the teeth




Plans & Instructional video here: http://forum.flitetest.com/showthread.php?4288-FT-Spitfire-Build&highlight=foamboard+weight

A word of caution - The foamboard I got is at least 1.5 times the weight of the foamboard used by the FT team. So the model worked out very heavy. The earlier two builds were from biofoam, and they were lighter than the FT versions.

Build is pretty straightforward if you've built a few FT foamies

No scale colours here, went for visibility and orientation. Recently bought a bunch of coloured tape, so used it Cheesy

Very nice build sir! Clap Clap Clap
Even mine was too heavy , so i removed one side paper from depron so it almost came to FT Spitfire weight.
are those retractable LG sir?

To increase thrust you need more  money! But to reduce weight you  need nothing!

The darn model worked out massively heavy, and tail heavy to boot  Bang Head

Switched from a 2826-1400 KV to a 2836-1400 KV, extended the nose, and gave down and right thrust

Made a custom smaller power pod

In case anyone is interested, I used this cheap L/G I had got from HK about a year ago. Was lying around gathering dust.

I don't think it can take a rough landing Sad

Fitted up now. Praveen, next time I'll peel off one side of the paper. Thought about it, but was too difficult in the built state.

Don't wake a Tiger until you've factored the teeth



Flies real good. Decent glide too

It's a pleasure to fly a fast, sporty low-winger. Very tight loops and rolls too. No self-correction after turns, the pilot has to re-level.
