    Status: offline     		Mine came in today! Initial inspection looks promising - sturdy but very light construction. Covering was flawless (even though it's an un-scale like glossy), and the numbering on the fiberglass cowl was painted on. Nice touch.
    My only concerns prior to getting the kit were the retracts. However, it seems like they will work decently enough (unlike the shabby retracts in the H8 P51 .60). At first, they exhibited quite a bit of 'slop' when deployed, but there is a small set screw that you can adjust to tighten the slop when gear is down.
    The actual gear wire rotates by means of two plastic ball links. I will be interested to find out how these links hold up while taxing/landing on grass. I may try to find a way to strengthen them.
    Power will be a Saito 100. Should be a fun plane!

    Status: offline     		I am going with the Saito 100 in mine as well. I think I am going to run a 14x8 on it. Any opinions on that? I have a Saiot 100 in a Cap 232 sport model from kange. I run the APC 16x4 Wide in it. I think this model begs for a little more speed. Gotta call the hobby shop to see if mines in.

    Status: offline     		Pigman,

    I agree with the 14x8 with the saito 100. It should fly the corsair great. That is what I run on my H9 p-51 and it flys well. Weight and size are about the same but aerodynamics may make a difference. Let me know how it works out. I am eyeing this plane also.
