RC Spitfire crashing

This is what i edited out of my other spitfire vid.
It is all my crashes, but i usually call them hard landings, because it was meant to hit the ground, just not like that.

The plane was up and flying in a couple of minutes, even after the last crash.

The plane had a lot of damage after the last crash that wasn't apparent straight away, but it still flew.

The most annoying damage was the motor mount, it had been pushed out, but i suppose it was better that then the motor.

Enjoy!

this is funny people spending lots of money and then they crash it. i would go for a cheaper one then go for an expensive one.

Yeh i agree, but i made this for a major school project.

I learnt on an S&B Komet.

I would usually land fine, but i think i was a bit nervous.

Yeh, there not the best planes to fly, but they look goood when their well trimmed.

yay, 3000 views

This was my first plane, which probably wasn't the best idea, but i learnt on a S&B Komet, which is an excellent plane.

I have retired the Spitfire, and put all the electronics into a Komet that i got for free.

yea it gets expensive, not much you can do about the radio though, but you can always o to mikeys rc and build a "3d" foam core airplain, I built a spitfire from the plans he offers for free,

the airplain cost me a total of $8.50 to build, less the motor, radio and battery.

But when you think how much it will cost to replace parts after a crash it will practicaly be nothing because I had plenty of foam core left over I got two 22 x 19 '" pices for $3

Nice model but you must landing slowly..

[cubanadventurer]

its hard with landing gears on grass, I have the parkzone spitfire and it lands perfect on grass. If you get a chance check out ctaves.
