These little planes are amazing! I have the BF109 and mini F-16, I love them both. The F-16 can handle wind a bit better however, the camber of the BF109 wing actually creates a bit too much lift in heavy winds. Nonetheless these are incredible planes.

Totally agree!

Paint your props a bright red/yellow/orange with a magic marker boys. Makes 'em MUCH easier to find in the grass. Also best to keep the 3-bladers for display purposes. They break much easier than the 2-bladers. 🙂

100% true, I love my BF109, but the props are fairly easy to break. I have ordered a few of the Mustang double props to see how that will work, as well as a few more tri-props.

I painted the 2 blade prop and the wingtips of my Spitfire yellow, makes it much easier to see in the air, especially against a dark backdrop. I just used some acrylic, I can take it off easily at a later date, once I'm better at flying. It's been great fun so far! A few crashes but no damage at all! I'm getting the hang of landing now.

The only music to listen with this video : Iron Maiden "Aces High" ... BF-109 is also known (later) by ME-109. I have all Eachine Miniwarbirds excepting the last P40. All are great planes, funny to fly at no cost.

That was so much fun to watch and also shows how much fun you can have with those Micro Planes. That poor BF 109 ate the sod ;-) See you in the Air!

Huge fun buddy ! Saving them for some Spring weather...

It remembered me to Geoffrey Wellum in the battle of britain.. Thanks👍

So much fun! brilliant little models

That was funny. I especially liked the Spitfire pilot's attempted Harrier type landing. Best regards, from occupied Kalifornia !

Glad you enjoyed it!

AWESOME!

Awesome...just glad the Spitty won!!

These are so much fun aren't they and it was great to see them essentially survive a mid-air collision. How many RC planes could do that? From the video I think the BF109 lost one of the three props too. I display using the 3 blades and fly usually on 2 blades as they seem less easy to break. Also come off power when landing on grass to save that prop.

Fun little planes, I've had a couple... even better when you bind it to a 'proper' transmitter 😁

That was so cool not sure how he hit to take the prop and not lose his own prop but it worked and these birds are so tough you just get back up and fly again. so worth the price . I have the corsair but its not going to be my only one Promise

I love the spitfire, I have to order one for sure..

Very nice...

nice

At last a spitfire.👍😸🍻

Yea i think you are right it was a wing tip that clipped the prop

OUTSTANDING! I want both of them! It's too bad they aren't as cheap as they were when the P51D first came out. Could you find & insert the multimodule configuration for these models here? I understand these little planes are more stabile & controllable when run using a hobby grade transmitter with multimodel capability like Radiomaster or Jumper. Thanks! - Jim

Does anyone know how long the motor lasts since it's brushed?

Dom Der Butcher!

So which one should I buy? Nice Video!

It’s amazing how those props can just vanish. Did the three bladed break apart?

Lost one blade. Each plane comes with a couple of spares so no big problem.

I was thinking of starting RC flying ... how do I find my local club. I'm based near Camberley in Surrey . I saw your video of the F1 at Aldershot.

These things weigh about 65 grams with the battery, even an airsoft system would be too big and heavy. Paintball is way bigger and heavier

Hi I have the Volantex Spitfire and when I unplug the flight battery the transmitter starts beeping after about 3 seconds...until I switch of the transmitter....I have the A6m zero..and the BF109 and it doesn’t happen when I unplug the flight battery from them only the the Spitfire transmitter...wondered if you could help

Newer versions uave an upgraded reciever board and transmitter that gives low power and lost signal warnings, with a signal loss failsafe.

How many do you have to buy to get one that works ? I bought a Mustang - delivered with an aileron servo that didn't work. I bought a Trojan - did 4 perfect flights, but after the 5th the servos worked but the motor didn't run. I have just bought a Spitfire and that was delivered with the rudder almost completely broken away from the stabiliser. Great planes or cheap rubbish ?

@@EssentialRC I wouldn't give too much credence to the claims of multiple defective units from the poster SmallScaleSteam Dom. I seem to remember checking his profile after another reply to a different video which seemed at great variance to my own experience on the subject. The trouble with KZread is there is no independent way of checking whether respondents are telling the truth or just lying crackpots with a barrow to push! ;-)

England wins from the germams. Super

A quick question. These models were being sold every where for a short time but now the Spit is only on Banggood. I have noticed how some really good models run for a short period and then dissapear really quickly. The Electric R/C GEE BEE R3 was my dream plane but by the time I had enough money it dissapeared off the market. Cant find one anywhere. If they are so good why do they stop making them and why so quickly? Is it because there isnt such a big RC community now days world wide?
