Excellent flying plane / Really satisfied

Nov 15, 2019

I was astonished how good this plane flies. In my opinion, the construction of this plane is excellent.
I fly it out of a mowed grass runway, but which has some mouseholes and some plants (broadleaf plantain?). On this runway, the plane has the tendency to come sometimes on the nose, so I pull the elevator a little during the start and as a consequence it takes off a little bit early with low speed. Some other planes would react by banking strongly to the left directly after take-off. This plane doesn't.
I found that during the flights, it forgives a few pilot errors. I mean in my opinion it is difficult to bring it to stall (which is good).
During the landing and before touching the ground, it glides very well.
The plane is very stable.
I have taken 1 star out for the quality because:
- the pilot figure was not fixed in the cockpit (not screwed).
- the motor was not properly assembled, so the rotor was rubbing on the magnets. I have detected it as I assembled the plane for the first time. I have disassembled and reassembled the motor and I fly the plane with it.

Stunning value

A great fun fighter size Spitfire . Looks amazing and terrific value . Only one minor gripe , my pilot is not stuck and loose in the canopy. Still trying to figure out how fix him without damaging the canopy or body work. Otherwise superb.

This 1100mm series of planes from Durafly and HK is amzing they ply so well, this one in specific is super fast on a 4s flies super locked in and for the price it is hard to beat. The build was quick and straight forward and everything worked as intended out of the box. This has quickly became one of my favorite flying planes.

Boggles abandoned post

Jun 27, 2019

Received my shiny new spitfire this afternoon. Lovely finish and very well packaged, sadly biggles in the cockpit did not travel so well (not sick everywhere, but tried to escape), fortunately the canopy doesn’t open otherwise he could be sunning himself on a beach in Skegness, drinking ice cold white lightning (well his top half anyway)
Haven’t assembled it yet although if it is anything like the other durafly models I have, it will be a doddle.
Will add flying review later (after biggles has been reassigned)

Great Quality

Jul 21, 2017

Coming from the Big "F" named foamies i was kind of skeptical about the Durafly but was pleasantly surprised of the Great Quality of this warbird.
Paint is top notch , foam is in perfect form and the details are amazing! Durafly even put protective plastic on the fuselage where the wing connects to prevent pressure damage .
Great job Durafly .

This is my first Durafly plane, and I went into it not knowing what to expect. It went on sale for $155.50 so I couldn't turn it down. The plane arrived in perfect shape, no shipping damage. Assembly impressed me in the small details. Wing screws that are machine screws instead of wood screws. ESC installed, not just flopping around on the motor wires. Paint is stunning, it almost doesn't look like a foam plane. Beautiful details everywhere you look.

Flying it is a real treat! It has gobs of power, and no bad habits. It's fast as you'd ever want, and doesn't show any tendency to tip stall at slow speeds. The lights are a nice touch, but the flaps are the best part. Even at the extreme angle the manual calls for, there is no tendency for the plane to balloon up when they are deployed. I have no elevator mixed in with the flaps, either. The biggest and best surprise is how well this plane handles grass. It's just a non event with no tendency to nose over on takeoff nor landing.

They got this plane right. If you're on the fence, don't hesitate. I have FMS, Roc Hobby, Flightline and E-Flight planes. The Durafly is, hands down, the best of the bunch!
