Guillow's Airplane & Jet Kits 504 Editorial Review

The Guillow's Spitfire Model Kit is a balsa wood airplane kit that requires assembly, painting, and decal application. The kit includes balsa parts, tissue paper, decals, and plans. It does not include paint or glue. The instruction booklet provides guidance on building balsa wood planes. The model is not pre-painted or pre-assembled. It is a rubber powered model and can be flown if built light and unpainted. Some users have successfully fitted this kit with electric motors and micro-R/C, but it is primarily meant for display or elastic power. The landing gears do not retract, but can be inserted or removed from holes in the wing. The tail wheel is fixed to the fuselage. Overall, this kit is relatively simple and takes approximately 12 hours to complete.
