Durafly once again set the standard with this beautiful Mk 24 Spitfire, no Warbird collection could be complete without this most iconic of fighters, the Spitfire was the only allied fighter to be in service from pre to post WW2, this final version of RJ Mitchell's masterpiece was a testament to the brilliance of his design. The Mk 24's graceful yet aggressive lines make it one of the most handsome fighters ever built and there can be no doubt, Durafly have captured the very essence of the ultimate Spitfire!

As well as looking fantastic, this Spitfire is plug and fly, meaning very little assembly work is needed. The powerful outrunner motor, ESC, navigation lights, servoless electric retracts, split flaps & servos are all pre-installed leaving you with little to do, in fact you could easily be in the air in less than half an hour! At 1100mm wing span, the Spitfire is easy to transport, helped by it's easily removable wing and as it uses the ever-green 2200mAh 3s Lipoly battery, the Spit is as practical and cheap to run as the rest of the Durafly range. The modular design of the Spitfire also means parts are easy and fast to replace in the case of the worst happening, so your pride and joy can look pristine at all times!

We have flown this superb Spitfire extensively during testing and it will not disappoint, it is easy to fly but is so realistic and capable that it will satisfy the most seasoned warbird pilot. The proper split flaps, which are operated by "slow" servos offer rock solid low speed confidence without a hint of ballooning or pitch change when deployed. Spitfires have a reputation for being prone to ground handling difficulties at times but not this Spitfire! The combination of raked forward, yet scale looking & pre-installed retracts, effective tailwheel steering and generous size scale rudder make this Spitfire amazingly well behaved on the ground. This is the best Durafly Warbird yet, it is easy to build and fly yet offers superbly realistic speed, climb rate & aerobatic performance while being practical yet charismatic, it is a true classic!

*Note: Some customers may find the CG indicated at 120mm from the L/E in the supplied instruction manual. This is a printing error that has since been corrected. The actual CG being approximately 70mm from the L/E. An amended instruction manual can also be downloaded from the "Files" tab below.

The dream combination of high-performance flight and incredible scale detail has finally been realized. With its stunning scale finish, you could mistake this model for a desktop display. But the compact size of this “aiRium series” model is packed with advanced micro-plane technology featuring full 4-channel control that delivers stunning flight performance. The specially designed high-performance brushless motor and ESC (electronic speed controller) combine to deliver powerful output directly to the propeller, smoothly and reliably without a gear reduction unit. When powered by a 450mAh Li-Po battery, 5-minute flight times of true fighter plane performance worthy of the SPITFIRE name are achieved. The model comes as an almost fully pre-assembled Readyset and includes an advanced 2.4GHz DSSS system that automatically selects open frequencies for safe flight control. With expert design and build to realize flight performance that will be appreciated by owners over a long period of time and a detailed scale finish that will draw admiration from all, this SPITFIRE opens the door to a deeper fascination with scale aircraft flight.


3-blade propeller doesn’t just recreate the original prop for display; it produces powerful thrust for realistic fighter plane flight performance.


Features such as panel lines, machine gun and air intake are recreated down to the finest detail. Scale form combines with nimble flight performance way beyond its actual size.

when both i decided to go for the durafly Spit MK 24 because that one had it all, navigation lights, spareparts real cheap,retracts, the best comment and slightly cheaper then the kyosho and wingtips of 1100mm while the kyosho measures only 650 widthspan ... so much more for less money, feels good
am now in contact with belgian rc flyers wich also prefare the durafly spit wich fly's indoors and outdoors without problems


I found also some other interested spits
