Here are my review notes for this very big Hobbyking Spitfire:

Big and beautiful with tons of scale detail
Lots of bright lights
Scale split flaps
The huge motor that runs on 3300 to 4000mAh 6S power
Pan and tilt FPV hardware is included
The sliding canopy and scale door is the ultimate in scale detail
Ball link servo connectors
Hidden control surfaces for a more scale look

Cons:
I don't have any cons currently for this Avios Spitfire Mk Vb Super Scale World War Two Warbird, but I will update this after I fly it and note any I come across.

I find it truly amazing just how a foam Remote Control Airplane like this Avios Supermarine Spitfire MkV is available at this price with this many extras. I am completely blown away by this beautiful plane and cannot wait to fly it!

This is how Hobby King describes this RC Spitfire WWII Warbird:

"Welcome to the ultimate scale experience. The Avios Spitfire Mk5 has been built using super scale, a new modelling technique that allows for incredible detail. Featuring more artistry than the 1100mm Spitfire, the larger model has visible panel lines, exhaust, cannons, and scale split flaps with turn indicators for added realism.

The Avios Spitfire Mk5 is the perfect Warbird for flying at your local club. Designed in collaboration with Tom Hunt, the warbird has pre-installed electronics, replaceable rudder, and navigational lights on the the tail and wings. Slide the canopy back, then lower the cockpit door to reveal the interior details, including instrument panels and gun sight. The front of the canopy also includes removable armoured glass to make room for an FPV camera.

Made of bolt-together foam pieces, the Avios Spitfire Mk5 is easy to store and transport when travelling to the air field. The plane also has a large battery tray, ball-link controls for precision, and hidden control surfaces for a realistic look. The Avois Spitfire Mk5 comes in two different colour schemes, ETO (European) and tropical (African).
