Hi Guys,
i'm Gianluca from Italy and i've already received my PZ Spitfire!:D
I've choose the "replacement airframe" solution cause i already own a 6ch radio and i dislike the Parkzone radio.
The airframe comes with motor but without servos so i need some help to choose the correct size of the servos: i've tried with a HS55 from Hitec but it's to small. If someone could measure the PZ servo it will be great.
My second problem it's the servo horn blocking system for the ailerons wire: in this case a close up picture of this part will be excellent.
I say thanks in advance to everyone that will help me.

Ciao
Gianluca

I can't wait for your help guys so i did it myself.
The right servo it's the Mini HS81 from Hitec...just in case someone need to know.
Today i've made the maiden flight with 2200 3s Lipo and i'm very satisfied; in landing it showed a very good gliding attitude.
I had some problem with the ailerons because the servo can't go back to the zero point: probably the ailerons wire did not slip very well inside the little rubber tube. IHMO the steel wire it's too thin and probably tends to bend a little.
Anyway the little boy flyes very well but it's not properly a beginners plane; i think that a beginner needs a help from someone who knows how to setup and use a rc plane...my two cents.

Greetings from Italy

I have had problems with my ailerons not returning to center and I believe the problem to be the hitec servo.I've had more than one hitec servo that wouldn't center.I no longer buy hitec.
