SPITFIRE TIPS
• For optimum flight performance and model longevity we recommend that you always fly with a
balanced propeller. The supplied propeller should be balanced but it is always good practice to
check this.
• Keep all leads within the fuselage area as tidy as possible. A tidy wiring set-up looks better,
allows for easier access to all the internal components, better battery installation, increased airflow
around the electronic components and also reduces the potential electronic signal interference
(noise).
• Inspect the propeller frequently, especially if you have suffered a hard landing or prop strike. If the
propeller is in any way damaged it must be replaced and any loose fixings should be tightened.
• It is important that your flight battery is as far forward as possible for initial flights to prevent you
from flying the Spitfire in a tail heavy configuration. Ensure you follow the C of G guidelines on
pages 6-8 and 9 before flying your Spitfire.
• A Turnigy Nano-Tech 3300mah 6S 65-130C is the preferred battery pack to use on the Mk5.
Other packs can of course be used but ensure you check the C of G before flying.
• Do not use full flaps on a windy day, only use full flaps on days when there is little or no wind. Full
flap requires good throttle management to prevent the model from stalling so in i tially practice the
use of full flap at a reasonable altitude.
• To avoid any chance of your Spitfire tipping onto its nose on landing switch to high rates on the
elevator as soon as the model settles onto the ground after landing and hold full up elevator.
• Do not leave your model in direct sunlight or in a hot vehicle for prolonged periods as this will
have an adverse effect on the foam surface of the model.
