RE: Looking for Corsair tail wheel build
Sam, Sent you a PM, wondering if you got it? I may post some pictures of a new tail wheel build, you want to turn this into a build thread and build along with me? What scale are you doing, 1/6? Let me know what you are up to and when you want to start.
Tom, Glad you could use my drawings, post some pictures of what you did and how you did it! I’m not going to post my drawings though, I give them out to those that may be able to use them.
Jim, Great looking tail wheel, I have the Brian Taylor drawings and it looks pretty good. I’m not sure if it would be easy to attach a functional tail wheel using his method. I just started using PC board material and fell in love with it, it’s very strong and light.
Hi Goose, I’ve not been too active in ye old hobby until just recently, I’d say a month or so ago I started flying again after several years off. It’s been great and I’m glad to see you so busy! Keep up the great work!
Foxx, I appreciate that very much, but I’m not mad or anything though. Some people did get angry about my scale observations, I just keep those to myself unless I’m asked! Also, people just get busy with other things and like I said I quit the hobby recently for a while, I didn’t do anything with my models all last year.
I will have a nice selection of planes to fly this spring, and one of them will be my Royal Corsair! I’m also finishing my CMP Hellcat, VQ Black Widow ARC and Top Flite P-51B just to name a few!
So, for those that are interested in seeing my scratch built Royal/Marutaka Corsair, here are the finished pictures with the final clear coat added.
