Building and Flying a MASSIVE 3D Printed Spitfire (Ft. Drone Collision)
In this video, were building and flying this absolutely beautiful 1700mm Supermarine Spitfire MKIX by 3DLabPrint. This is by far the coolest RC airplane I own. This plane was definitely not the easiest thing to put together, but she flies beautifully, and looks about as good as I could expect. This is by far my largest 3D printed RC airplane build. I purchased the STL files for this build in April of 2024, so its been a long time coming. Weighing in at just under 10lbs with the battery, and that massive 1.7M/67 inch wingspan this plane is a sight to behold. While it is a pretty difficult build, I think the end result is far worth the effort.

Any feedback on my videos in general would be appreciated. Don’t care to see the build portion of the video? Let me know! Check out some of my other 3D printed airplane projects!
