A Tribute to the Legendary Spitfire

The Supermarine Spitfire became one of the most recognisable aircraft of the Second World War, earning its place in aviation history through its performance, distinctive elliptical wings and vital service with the Royal Air Force.

The Mk.IX was developed to counter increasingly capable enemy fighters and went on to become one of the most important variants of the Spitfire.

XFly has recreated the aircraft’s graceful lines in a practical 1200mm electric RC model, complete with scale detailing and an eye-catching Spirit of Kent finish.

Powerful Brushless Performance

The XFly Spitfire is equipped with a 3541-KV745 brushless motor and a 40A electronic speed controller.

Designed to operate with a suitable 4S LiPo battery, this power system provides the performance required for enjoyable scale warbird flying.

The model is recommended for pilots who already have experience flying RC aircraft.

Retractable Landing Gear

One of the standout features of this Spitfire is its electric retractable metal landing gear.

The outward-retracting main undercarriage features shock-absorbing struts, helping recreate the characteristic appearance of the full-size aircraft while providing practical ground handling.

Working Four-Panel Split Flaps

The model features four-panel split flaps inspired by the original aircraft.

These allow pilots to manage their approach and landing more effectively when correctly configured, making them a useful feature for a scale warbird.

Realistic Scale Details

XFly has included a range of attractive details to enhance the aircraft’s appearance.

These include a realistic four-blade propeller, detailed canopy, pilot figure, exhaust stacks, wing cannons and LED wingtip lights.

The finished result is an impressive replica that captures the distinctive shape and character of the Spitfire Mk.IX.

Durable EPO Foam Construction

Constructed from EPO foam, the Spitfire combines detailed moulded surfaces with a lightweight structure.

The 1200mm wingspan provides an attractive scale presence while remaining manageable for transport and storage.

Recommended Battery

The XFly Spirit of Kent Spitfire is designed for use with a compatible 4S 2600–4000mAh LiPo battery with XT60 connector.

Battery choice will affect flying weight, balance and flight duration. Always check the centre of gravity and follow the manufacturer’s setup instructions before flying.

What You Need to Complete

This version is supplied with the motor, ESC and servos installed, but requires the following items separately:

• Suitable six-channel or higher transmitter
• Compatible receiver
• 4S 2600–4000mAh LiPo flight battery

Who Is This Aircraft Suitable For?

Its retractable undercarriage, working flaps and realistic appearance make it an excellent addition to a collection of WWII RC aircraft.

Whether you’re a Spitfire enthusiast or simply appreciate a well-detailed scale model, the Spirit of Kent is a fantastic aircraft to take to the flying field.
