Wanted a Corsair for ages. I was waiting for the Parkzone to turn up in the UK. Well it did. Unfortunately you can only get the RTF version ($400) So I have ended up with a Greatplanes Corsair and i must say she is a beauty. I hope to maiden her this week. picasaweb.google.co.uk/paulscc3

Very nice job! They seems to be nice planes. I have the P-51 mustang still in the box. I plan to use a .25 engine in mine with micro gear. I have to go look at the pics again to see your set up.

Might try to fit retracts in mine if weight allows for it. I like those robart pneumatics....they sure look slick.
I like the look of the build up for sure. I better get mine out and look at it. Still in the box unopened.

Hey Duck. Thats a great bit of footage. She flys sweet. Here's a very short clip of my maiden today. I will get better looking and longer footage in the future. vimeo.com/2035940It was windy but she handled it well. Definitely going to cut out a battery hatch and rudder.

you will be suprised how well this thing will fly inverted too. the rudder and batt hatch was one of the first things he did to his, well and a landing gear.
