Just wondering when the preorder started. Did it start when the first container (containers) were on the water or ready to leave the factory. As much as i love the look and appeal of the A10 my real alegence right now is to my beloved prop warbirds. I would kindly like to thank all the ones that held off until i could rouse the last dallars to get this bird ordered. Thankyou i safely made the preorder. Now my 2 Phoenix 1/8 scale planes will have a larger friend to hang out with. There newer offers of larger models of the same plane have been extremely attractive considering i have a couple of power plants to drop right in (gas motors both 20 and 35). I really wanted this plane from day one. Anxious now just waiting on the end of july.:Drooling::)Dewey l

Thanks Shirty. My old truck messed up on me and i had to use the money i had saved for the plane and was so happy when i called and found it was still open when i was able to get it together again.:)money really comes hard for me and my old cat. She eats even if i dont. I know its dumb but this plane meant a lot to me. Its my favorite next to my Corsairs. Just like you love your Blue nose P51s. I have the SnootsSniper. I hope im still in your good graces. Have a happy and safe 4th my friend.:)Dewey l

We try to change things up whenever possible. Recall that in the past 10 months, the F7F, F-16 V2 Gray, and Ta-152 preorders were all opened just 2-3 weeks or so before the first shipments arrived, because we waited for the ship to transit most of the Pacific before even announcing the new model's existence. There are exceptions to this process for a variety of reasons, but in general, the Spitfire, like the Avanti and most of our other models, are made available for pre-order sooner after the first shipments depart.

Alpha or Ryan...
I have access to 7000mah 6s packs...is there room in there for those? It looked like it was a snug fit with the 5000's in one of the videos I saw. Also from a balance perspective would a 7000mah be beneficial? I added ballast (on top of the 4000mah 4s) in my 1200mm FL Spitfire to get it to balance like I wanted it. It flies wonderfully.:) Thanks...Big time propeller head
Love flying scale and 3D

Look at the pictures on the product page and you will see our old dimension 5000 Admiral all the way forward. You'll notice there is plenty of room aft for your larger pack.Big time propeller head

Thanks Alpha!

Dear Ryan & Mike and MotionRC , this is the first time that the aspirations of an average customer (money), but a capable RC pilot(without fake modesty I consider myself to be such) have been affected. Dimension, power and weight ratio , fantastic design ,as I saw when I was child in full size, and ultimately acceptable price,because we paid twice the similar product so far. Thank you very much guys , and especially for you Pilot Ryan...on the fantastic landing.

Looks like us down under folk will be first to get these absolutely beautiful models. I say that from first hand impressions... I was fortunate enough to partake in a brief unboxing a few hours ago. Check out hoppy's post over on RCG for more details.
A big thanks to Chad and the team at Xtreme Hobby for organising early delivery for the dedicated Spitfire devotees (including me!). It's good to see a business realise what they needed to do to stay in business and make amends. I recommend you get in contact with Xtreme a see what they can do for you. Have a chat with Chad, he will tell you how it is and no more bs.
I was skeptical myself at first but a few deals later I find myself parting with some decent cash for my dream plane. I'm praying to the shipping gods every night and might see it Friday...
After seeing it in the flesh today, it really does meet all expectations. Superb job FL - I can't wait to get it in the air!
cheers
