NICK ZIROLI GIANT SCALE PLANS for Supermarine Spitfire Mk I-V
Wingspan-100" Length-81 1/2"
Weight-30-34 lbs Engine-62 - 85 cc gas
Our designs are equally at home at the local sport flying field or the
winner’s circle at prestigious scale events such as Top Gun and the Scale
Master’s; you can add as much detail as you like. Over the years, our designs
have gained the enviable reputation for being among the most "flyable" giant
scale models available. The basic structures use conventional "modeling" tools
and materials such as balsa and plywood, and the techniques are straightforward;
easily accomplished by anyone with previous model building experience. Most
plans have separate instruction guides and building notes on the plans. The
SPITFIRE plan set consists of four large sheets that clearly illustrate all
structure as well as showing installation of gear and flaps. The plan includes
full-size templates for all the required parts allowing you to cut a complete
"kit" before you start construction.
There are
many online building threads at
www.rcuniverse.com forums and
www.rcscalebuilder.com forums for Nick’s plans. Tech support is also
available via email at
www.ziroliplans.com or by phone 9:00 to 5:00 Mon - Fri EST 631-467-4765. If you don’t have the tools or
time to cut your own kit Nick Ziroli Plans now carries a laser cut short wood
kit for the Spitfire plan that contains all the parts that you would
otherwise have to cut by hand from balsa and plywood, it does not include sheet
or stick wood or hardwood, balsa blocks. There are many kit cutters such as
Precision Cut Kits that make a very fine full wood kit that contains all the
sheet, stick wood and balsa, hard wood blocks and laser cut parts to build the
complete model from our plans. The plans have a separate instruction guide and
building notes on the plans. If you choose gear or an engine not shown on the
plans you should have them on hand when you start construction to make any
changes needed for mounting.
