nerdnic | 800 Series nnSpitfire - Foam board RC Spitfire

[@ChrisMisMYhandle]

looks amazing. it's going on the build list

[@nerdnic]

Wooo! Share pics when you're done.

[@sharkhead6515]

Beautiful aircraft and even better pilot skills

[@rossdallaire8882]

This is gonna be my next build!

[@nerdnic]

Awesome!

[@RamyRC]

nice

[@nerdnic]

Thanks!

[@rjwohlman]

Nicely done! Going to start building mine tonight.

[@clayballard6400]

Very cool! You asked if there were any planes we would like to see... I've always thought that the Yak-3 had a really unique look to it. Nice stout and short wings. Idk, whatever you think is cool I guess. Keep up the great content!

[@nerdnic]

It's a good looking plane. I think it would fly well too!

[@robertpayne9282]

Beautiful!

[@AntsRC]

Wow looks like another great design. I haven't even finished the nnP-39 yet, bette pull my finger out

[@nerdnic]

I've got more coming too!

[@yayathidayat6678]

All of Your design are beautiful. Unfortunately I am not yet intermediate builder

[@AndrewFlyGuy]

Absolutely gorgeous build!

[@nerdnic]

Thanks!

[@Louis-lu5wh]

This is perfect!

[@RafaelTauil]

Epic! I've built the FT Spitfire and really like it. This version of Spitfire for sure is going to be on my next projects! Quick question: Does it fly well with a 2200 battery? Which engine do you suggest? I fly the FT Spitfire with a 2822 engine with a 2200 battery but it feels that it's too much weight for the engine. I would like to know what do you suggest for this model (nnSpitfire 800 series)?

[@nerdnic]

Hi! A 2200 will definitely work but you'll be on the heavier side. A 1300 is a much better match. The motor you used on your FT spit will work great on my 800 Series planes! Good luck!

[@bowmanzz1]

Great flying

[@nerdnic]

Thank you!

[@ricardocaba4237]

HOLA GRACIAS , NO VEO LA CONSTRUCCION DEL FUSELAJE. ESTA EN ALGUN LUGAR ?

[@mikem602]

looks great!

[@nerdnic]

Thanks!

[@cl18t]

Nic, has anyone scaled this design up to a 1400mm wingspan? If so, any known issues. I really like your design but would like something larger.

[@zgr44]

awesome

[@colecollett9517]

Would you be able to scale this plan up to about 1400mm? Or maybe 1200mm would I just be able to print the plan that much bigger?

[@nerdnic]

I have beta plans for a 1500mm nnSpitfire that would work. You can scale the plans to any size but you have to account for the fact that the foam thickness doesn't scale with the plans. This means you'll have to make adjustments as not all pieces will 'fit perfectly'.

[@colecollett9517]

Nic Lechner ill wait for the bigger plans then 😁 really the best looking foamboard plane out there, especially with the wing root fairings!

[@nerdnic]

You can find the plans here if you want to build the 1500mm :-) www.nerdnic.com/nnspitfire-1500

[@viniladospublicidad]

Hola no. Encuentro el video para hacer este avión me pueden ayudar ya baje los planos y quiero construirlo muchas graciaa

[@rossdallaire8882]

What are you using to cut yours out? Are you still using the vinyl cutter?

[@nerdnic]

I am!

[@1mantvis1]

Hey Nic, so I decided to build the sonic series Spitfire beta. Got it all built, was pretty hard for me tbh haha (2nd plane) and now I have a problem with balancing it is around 1,5 to 2cm tail heavy from the balance point too much? Should I try to find some weights to put in the front? Thanks!

[@nerdnic]

Yeah that's too tail heavy. Add weight or a bigger motor to get CG set properly. Send me a picture of it when you're all done if you can.

[@1mantvis1]

Gotcha, I'll send you a picture of how it turned out once I find some time.

[@idiotsnifff]

Hi Nic, looks like a very nice build, wondering how you print these since the plans arent broken up into 8 1/2 x 11 sheets to print? would love to build one. thanks for your time,

[@nerdnic]

Follow this article and it will print as tiled: www.nerdnic.com/content/how-to-download-and-print-pdf-plans

[@alexbold6089]

What size paper do you print these plans on?

[@nerdnic]

martin is right on the money! If you're printing from home just use the tiled plans on 8.5x11 paper. Otherwise A1 or ARCH D size paper will work.

[@Rex227c1]

think you can recommend electronics or design a f4u that can race the p39 and beat it ?

[@nerdnic]

I'm working on a corsair. Head to head the P-39 will likely win though.

[@ahmadzahafiz5199]

can you design landing gear for this plane?

[@norgaterecord]

Hi Nic, Is there a built video for the fuselage :(

[@user-ve9ky2mj1e]

Hi . Great job man this is piece of art keep the good work. I💓 your work...and I hope that you can build a bf 109 because I really love this plane and I really love to build it ..thank you 🌹

[@sciencehub827]

Hi Nic, I started a channel on aerospace.I just wanted to check how much of this stuff you used and if you can give me recommendations on what should I do my next video by the way I am 13 years old. Thanks a lot nic

[@mamal0ogcube656]

where can i find laser cut Files [ DXF ]

[@szajba8106]

Nic I'am looking for advice - I want to buy RC transmitter and receiver under 100-150$. I've been surfing through forums, but topics are 3-10 years old. World is going fast forward, I don't want to buy some old crap ;p if you could give me info, I'd be grateful

[@nerdnic]

The FrSky Taranis Q X7 at 100$ is definitely your best option.

[@szajba8106]

Thanks. I'll look for it, maybe it won't be so cheap and viable in Poland, same as NTM motors sadly:/ What about DX9?

[@1mantvis1]

Is a 2204 motor and 850mah battery enough for this?

[@nerdnic]

It will work but you'll have a hard time balancing it. Will be tail heavy most likely.

[@szajba8106]

It won't be, I made MiG-3 800 and it was much underpowered. Go for Emax CF 2822 at least + 1,3Ah 3s LiPo + 20A ESC. It won't be much more expensive than mighty minis equipment.

[@kingmankingkongman9875]

Can you build a cub plane for 2212 size of motor ...please

[@nerdnic]

I don't have a cub in the works but I do have a Bird Dog. Should work on a 2212!

[@kingmankingkongman9875]

Please send me a link on the build plan of that plane...thank for helping me😊👍

[@szajba8106]

Nic thx for advice about Taranis QX7. I joined quad racing rc group and everyone has it or is going to buy it, it seems it was the best option in that price :) By the way, I have a request. A simple plane - Savoia Marchetti SM.79 Sparviero - tri motor bomber. I wanted to make plans on my own, but I don't have time, photoshop and experience in designing RC planes. This plane has perfect shape for foam board, it has box-a-like fuselage, straight wing leading edge and it looks nice overall. I think that 1m wingspan version of it, powered by 3x2204 or 1806 motors and 11,1v 2200mAh would work just fine.

[@johaze007]

Make some micro 3d planes

[@nerdnic]

I have a full size 3d in the works, a micro would be fun though!

[@thejasn6209]

hey nic can you tell me when will you post build vedio

[@nerdnic]

Best way to know when I add the video is to subscribe and click the notification bell :-)

[@thejasn6209]

I've already subscribed. just asking that's all

[@AJ-vi1cw]

Can you please toss me the link to the build video I can't seem to find it.

[@nerdnic]

It is still being made. I will add it to my channel when it's ready.

[@AJ-vi1cw]

Nic Lechner ohhh ok thanks

[@thejasn6209]

Hey nic i cant wait for the buld vedio. is the build process similar to nnp39?

[@nerdnic]

Yes it's almost identical!

[@jaybird4610]

TBD devastator should be built by someone. Brave men flew them defending the world.

[@elijahf111]

does it fly well with a ft power pack c?

[@nerdnic]

It can. That would be on the heavier/faster side though, so just be aware.

[@elijahf111]

Nic Lechner what power pack stopped you recommend

[@nerdnic]

Check out this page for all my recommended electronics: www.nerdnic.com/electronics.html

[@andrebullitt7212]

Brewster Buffalo. Few have done that. :)

[@user-AdiUtomo]

Bagus

[@MackenzieClarke23]

How about a lagg 3?

[@nerdnic]

Great idea, looks like a more stable version of a MiG 3.

[@MackenzieClarke23]

Nic Lechner thanks, I hope you consider building one!

[@1mantvis1]

How about a Bf 109 or Fw 190?

[@nerdnic]

It's in the works! www.nerdnic.com/blog/nnbf-109-is-coming

[@1mantvis1]

Awesome, thanks for the reply! Can't wait to see the result!

[@ehhso634]

PBY Catalina

[@nerdnic]

Oh this is a good one!

[@pmm4177]

Im gonna have to build this to match my ft corsair

[@nerdnic]

That's a great idea!

[@donm8856]

How about one of these?

[@nerdnic]

One of what? :)

[@jackwhipple5047]

I think you should build a b-17 bomber

[@nerdnic]

That would be epic!

[@jackwhipple5047]

Also make it have a mini bomb drop

[@cypsoundsmusic]

P-40 or P-38

[@emanuelgreen2655]

Build a b2 bomber

[@peterowens9408]

looks great!

[@nerdnic]

Thanks!

[@johaze007]

Make some micro 3d planes
