General Building Information
The Spitfire MKI can be built by a person with average building skills. It is designed for someone who
has built a trainer or low wing sport plane. No unusual building techniques are required, although
more difficult areas are explained in detail where necessary. Certain steps in the building process must
be followed as depicted, or you might find yourself digging back into the structure to redo something.
These areas are outlined when necessary. Occasionally hints will be included at certain building steps.
These are not required for completion, rather they are tips intended to ease a particular process. The
cnc router does cut through the wood, As a result of this, occasionally there will be fraying on the
surface of the wood. This is normal, and is only a surface problem and does not affect the wood in any
other way. Similarly, the cnc settings are optimized for wood thickness averages, so occasionally, due
to variations even in individual sheets, some areas might not cut through completely. Simply use care
in cutting the parts from the sheets; most of the time, the parts will break out of the sheets!
Hardware and a motor mount are not included in the kit. There are so many choices for quality
hardware that these choices are left to the individual preferences of the builder, rather than include
something in the kit that you’ll probably throw away anyway.
