History:

The Spitfire Mk-24 was introduced into service in 1946. The F Mk-24 achieved a maximum speed of 454 MPH (731 km/h), and could reach an altitude of 30,000 ft (9,100 m) in eight minutes, putting it on a par with the most advanced piston-engined fighters of the era. A total of 81 Mk-24s were completed, the last Mk-24 to be built was delivered in February 1948. It was the last model of the Spitfire.

About the RC model:

Hello,

This is the all new Spitfire Mk-24. It's a beautiful airplane. I designed all the parts in Solidworks. It has
a brand new power pod design, more scale parts, lots of power and maneuverability, and removable landing gear with shock absorbers.

I designed the Spitfire with shock absorbers because the field where we fly our models is covered with gravel, which makes the landing part really hard on the plane (the hardest part is to stay in one piece after the landing). :D

This Spitfire is very aerodynamic, super fast and efficient. Landing is easy, the Spitfire came very slowly with no tip stalling.

I have more designs like the Spitfire, but the Spitfire is the first model that I'm sharing from all of my designs.
You are more than welcome to visit my YouTube channel for more designs and I'm hoping that soon I will be able to make my own website where you will be able to find plans to my designs.
