Official FlightLine RC 1600mm Spitfire Mk. IX Thread

Congratulations on the maiden!

[Prekin]

Happy New Year!!! Maiden successful. I moved 6S 5000mAh into nose as possible and add 35g of extra weight. Just only little trim elevator up.

[Prekin]

I went thru the manual once more and probably I will set the CG at 85mm and also use smaller control rates. She will need some extra weight. Also on the FL B24 I moved the CG little closer to L.E.

Prekin Beautiful resin prints and great design work. Nicely done, Sir. Best, LB

Thank you very much for your kind words LB!!

I'm still waiting for better weather so I did only some cockpit parts such as gunsight, spade grip with brake lever and canopy latch.

[Elbee]

Yes, again, beautiful work, SIr. Best, LB

[Prekin]

Very nice cockpit parts!

Of course I have several 3D printers in our workshop. I am going to use only the CAD designs from our office.

Thank you very much Elbee for your kind words. I do my best. I hope I will be able to use the control column I designed.

PK, again great work. I had designed and then redesigned extra cockpit parts for my Flightline Spittie, as well as some semi-scale Seafire Conversion Parts; however, your parts appear to be "spot-on".

Do you have a 3DP Printer or access to one? Also, do you have the original MotionRC OEM Spitfire Cockpit STL FIles?

Best, LB

Next year I would like to put my giant scale Spitfire project back on bench. That project needs some new parts. The instrument panel is one of the part which needed revision. In the pictures you can see the IP. It will need some mods on the shape for the FL Spitfire, because the foamy fuselage./QUOTE]

PK, that is some beautiful work, Sir. Looking forward to watching your progress. Best, LB

They weren't on mine, nor were they with the spares I purchased a while ago, so maybe that's relatively new. Although as I understand it, the Spitfire had 3 blade props manufactured by de Havilland but they had a license from Hamilton.

Since Mk.VII there were not 3 blade props.
Nevermind I will replaced them by the labels I did last year for Spitfires.

My Spitfire is assembled and balanced. All controls set. She is ready for maiden..
New fuel filler cap fits great.
Anybody knows, why there are Hamilton prop logos on the prop? I suppose, that Spitfre props were not made by Hamilton.

Hi,

Anyone happen to have a spinner for one of these? My son biffed his and they're out at Motion. What alternatives work with this plane/motor? TIA for answers or a spinner!

Happy Holidays!
