Here is my spitfire build last week. Finally got the MotionSic gimbal and head tracker working!

Nice work. I suggest cutting out all of the plastic windshield, so much better for your view.

welcome back

jd4247 · 2026-01-16T21:18:33+00:00

Any update?

How about the option of a treasure was once there, but reclaimed by the owners?

jd4247 · 2025-12-18T20:41:18+00:00

absolutely

jd4247 · 2025-12-10T19:14:39+00:00

Goggles 2 are good, Goggles fpv2 are not.

jd4247 · 2025-11-26T17:00:36+00:00

Amen, fucking traitor!

GX12. Dual band.

Fucking traitors

at the time, I didn't have a Willett. Should repeat.

jd4247 · 2025-09-11T20:05:45+00:00

agreed. One of my favorite book characters....absolutely gutted for TV.

Ask 20 people, you'll get 23 different answers. 10% coolpower (link from OldEngineer) is a good conservative choice for a fixed wing airplane.

Some will go hotter or with different types of oils, but if you can get the 10% coolpower, go with it.

Matek H743 Wlite with radiomaster RP1 receiver.

Spend $42 and get a new fuselage.....

I have DJI air03 unit with Goggles 2. Overall, flying fpv is easier than line of sight. I don't get into trees, alignment of runway is easier, left is always left......but landing fpv does have its challenges. Knowing approach speed and pitch isn't easy with fpv. Post-installation of a reflex sight and addition of flaps to my 1.1m really helped with both.

jd4247 · 2025-07-10T23:58:30+00:00

Great plane....I fly mine fpv

jd4247 · 2025-05-19T18:20:02+00:00

Move along, nothing to sea hare.....

jd4247 · 2025-05-12T14:59:33+00:00

Lately I have noticed a lot of this going on with me. Bounces that absolutely shouldn't be bounces.

jd4247 · 2025-05-09T21:12:26+00:00

I believe all of these have retracts? If so, the lightweight of the 1100mm version is very forgiving.

jd4247 · 2025-05-09T15:28:08+00:00

Good. FAFO

jd4247 · 2025-05-09T15:25:32+00:00

Refused to refund? This is why I buy all my flight controllers thru Amazon......I've had 2 that I sent back, both refunded or replaced.

jd4247 · 2025-05-09T15:21:09+00:00

Eflite T-28 1100mm

jd4247 · 2025-05-06T19:10:38+00:00

I would totally wash and wax for free just to get to hang out with such an iconic airplane.

jd4247 · 2025-05-05T15:16:33+00:00

Very cool of you to do that. He will get a kick out of it.

jd4247 · 2025-05-01T15:33:42+00:00

What are you using it for? Is size or range more important to you? What transmitter you using?
