If you are going to play that iconic music at the end of your video you need to show that Spitfire doing a barrel role with some white puffy clouds in the back ground. Its a must!
It is such an iconic piece of music. Sadly I can’t do victory rolls over the airfield as the C.O doesn’t like it. lol. Due to weather (1 foot of fresh snow on the runway) I won’t be able to fly until it melts.
I can't tell you how many videos I've watched on this group of Eachine bad boys! Eventually I'm going to have break down and buy one! :) Enjoyed the video friend!
P Bros. say 2 put in expert mode and check neutral adj on all surfaces ,otherwise when fly n U will get a crashing surprise when U flip the switch to expert.
I could be wrong but your landing gear appears to be swapped left-to-right. That's a pretty narrow stance and not very forgiving. I like this plane and am trying to decide if I want one. Hmmm Thanks for making and sharing your video.
I was waiting for someone to spot that (misquoting captain Mainwaring). There is in fact a very good reason why I appear to have the wheels on the wrong way around. The fact is that they aren’t. The spitfire was (to quote my stepfathers father who was an RAF POW in stalag luft 3) “the spitfire was a little knock kneed”. The wheels were placed close to the fuselage much like the famed BF109. This made the spitfire and the BF109 hard to handle on the ground. I could go on and on and bore you and everyone else to death on the handling on the ground of both the spitfire and BF109 but I think we can leave that up to those with scrambled egg on their hats. As yet due to work and weather (snow) I have been unable to do a maiden flight so I can't say whether you should buy one or not.
In a way you are kind of right. If you look at a real spitfire you will notice that the landing gear swings out from the fuselage into the wing. The spitfire and the BF 109 both shared this design flaw. RJ Mitchell when he designed the spitfire had a very good reason for this and it had to do with how thin the wing was. The Eachine spitfire is far from a scale model of the spitfire and a wide landing gear stance if common on many aircraft. But we can forgive Eachine for their lack of scale details as the aircraft flies very well and not meant to be a true spitfire.

Thank you and you are most welcome
Stunning
The spitfire is a great little aircraft and Flying the BF 109 is great fun too.

Thank you for your comment. I will keep that in mind.

A maiden Flight will be happening sometime between now and then.
Nice engine sound hehe this eachine warbirds are better
They are fun little planes to fly. I do prefer larger aircraft and they are a delight to fly. Hopefully I will be able to post more videos soon.
Eachine make the plan too small and i try to bin my on radio flysky to spitfire not working
You might want to try a multi protocol radio.
Landing gear is on wrong
