Well, I admire your ambition!

I'm going to see if my club wants to sponsor another warbird meet late spring or early next summer. Hope we can count on your attendance?

Glad to help. Wish I had pictures. I first used it on a vastly overpowered Stik arf and ended up with a wing with anhedral. Lotsa fun!

I have always understood the waggle had to do with a lack of vertical stabilizer area. I've seen it in R/C Corsairs, and Warhawks as well.

Spitfire,

I agree. I am first, last and foremost a flier. Minute details don't show when flying by at full speed. Landings determine whether or not you are a competent pilot. Hard rules, but true....

My concern with the design has been the fact that the hot air passing behind the engine isn't routed out of the airframe, instead it seems to be captured by the deepening cowl. Have you had any...

Thank you. It looks like the engine head should keep cool enough and you have milled the slots in the radiator behind it to get rid of residual heat. I had a H-9 Spit that needed a LOT of the cowl...

Is there a chance you have pictures of the cuts you had to make in the cowl for cooling air entry and exit?

Is that the J-tec mufffler for the Mustang, P-40, or is it specific to the Spitfire?

RE: Top Flite Giant Scale Spitfire ARF

ronht,

How is the narrow wheel track on your takeoffs? I'd have to say my P-47's have spoiled me! Does it seem to hold a straight line on it's own or are you correcting a lot?

Thanks.
