Beautiful Spitfire! Love how the electric motor is completely in the cowl. Can you post some more info? I have a hacker 80 and I'm thinking about putting it in my YA Spit.

What esc and what prop (size brand, etc) did you use. What is the total weight?

Do you have any pic's of the battery compartment, etc.

Thanks!

That looks great! Did you fly with the 5 blade propeller turning backwards? 
Surely the pictures were taken in a warmer season:)
