Kyosho Spitfire ARF 50 Warbird inc Retracts IC [K.11861]  £139.91 

Pre-assembled WWII fighter recreated with realistic retracts and flaps.
Elegant form and flying performance recreated in 50-class!

Forged in the life and death struggle of the Battle of Britain, the Spitfire's elegant elliptical wings and curved form are the enduring symbols of its heroics and popularity. However, these complicated curves were the reason the Spitfire didn't become a regularly produced R/C model. In addition to production difficulties, costs associated with recreating the scale form with any accuracy were always high. Kyosho has cleared these hurdles brilliantly with a lightweight balsa fuselage of the highest quality and accuracy in a factory-assembled model. Detailed camouflage colouring has also been reproduced in printed film and treated in ‘Master Coat'. Realistic scale flight style and appearance of the Spitfire is replicated through the split flaps, retracts and spinner for a 3-blade propeller. Now you can fly the never-say-die spirit of this legendary WWII fighter with 4-cycle 50-class engine power.
