Title: Shawn's spitfire maiden
Post by FLC on Jul 19^th, 2014 at 10:22pm

shawn flew his hangar 9 spitfiere for the first time today, DL20 spitting fire out the exhaust and shawn very nervous and apprehensive. I have the video to prove it. LOL

great maiden flight with only a couple of problems, a bit of down trim needed, and one gear failed to come down on the first try. Shawn recycled the switch and they both came down the second time. Told you they only work on the bench shawn. lol

super landing of a nice model shawn!
