Wing center section broken completely through. Tower sending another, holding this one for UPS claims pick up.

Notice the nice rectangular impression in the dented shipping box. Great handling with two day shipping!

Had it been on the other end of the box nothing would have been touched, plenty of air space there. Everything else was perfect.

UPS picked it up this morning. Sadly it will probably wind up in a dumpster at a regional claims center.

since IT IS Christmas time and you said you dont know what to do with that DLE 20, just send it on to me I'll take good care of it Im hoping that once I rcve my corsair, the RCGF 20 rear carb version I have will fit in the cowl without too much trouble.  The boxes should be delivered  today but Im having it delivered to my buddy's house since he purchased one too at the same time. ( And that will keep you know who from asking why is there "another airplane box" sitting on the front porch  !!   )

John, I have a RCGF 15 that I will putting into one of my Hellcats in the (hopefully) very near future. (The one Robert built for racing which I now own and am converting back to stock.) If it works well I'm thinking of another RCGF for my TF Corsair ARF. A couple of friends here in town are building a large Lancaster from scratch and they have purchased four of the 15cc RCGF motors for it. Each one is being broken in on a sport model and, thus far, they have been very happy with the performance of them. I also have a DLE 20 that is going in my little Yak-11 racer which I think might fit in the Corsair cowl as well. Anyway, I'd be happy to fit up the RCGF and/or DLE to the Corsair cowl and let you know how they fit if you want me to. Of course it will have to wait until 12/26 since my wife won't let me near the Corsair box right now!

The fellows here are having a delightful time snagging the .60 Corsair ARF for a near kit price so sour grapes aren’t going to spoil their fun.

Sorry you have a bitter taste for TopFlite kits or ARF’s. Personally I’ve had great results from their product line and will continue to purchase, assemble or build them.

Who? Me? Too many projects? No such thing! I just couldn't pass it up for the price Casey. It will most likely sit on the shelf for a while though. It will be getting a new paint job, can't show up at the field with the rediculous (my opinion) stock scheme. However, that's probably about all I will do with it.
