Status: offline 		Hi all, I would first just like to say thank you for those that have given me support and a special kiss my a$$ to all the retards that always annoy the hell out of me! I may be back in several months when I get the F2G done, we’ll see. The plans are for the most part complete, but I may make changes as I build the prototype. The F2G plan is not a stand-alone plan, it is meant to be used with the Royal plan, only the parts that need to be modified for the F2G version will be drawn on the F2G plan. I’m currently bashing an old Royal kit in 1/8 scale of course! When all the details are hashed out I’ll enlarge the F2G plan to 1/6 scale.

The first picture is of the wing. I am making the intakes functional and I want the retracts mounted up close to the leading edge so I made the kits balsa f-18 sub leading edge out of plywood. Also the modifications were made for the intakes of the wings, measured from a full scale F2G. Rib W-2 is the only rib that needs modification; the proper airfoil shape needs to be added to the bottom.

A look at the early plan, more will be added to the plan as the build progresses.

Thanks again guys,

Luke

Status: offline 		Hi Luke... I'm glad you're back. You have a lot of fans that easily outnumber the non-fans. Don't worry about them.

You should set a rule in this thread early... NO FLAMING allowed in this thread. We want to see your progress on this F2G without having to filter through all that junk.

But I'm dying to know... We're all dying to know... Has #108 flown yet?

Glad to see your back at it. Can't wait to see this one go together. Have you flown the other Corsair yet? How did she fly? Take care, Pete

You just can't keep a good man down... This urge to pull my Corsair off the rafters has suddenly intensified.

And just ignore the monkeys. They talk out of their a$$e$ most of the time anyhow.
Good luck with the F2G. And as others have asked, how's the famous royal??

Status: offline 		And if you really have a problem, I have my uncle in Jersey that can take care of things. All joking aside Luke, I, personally can not wait to see your latest creation. Your last drug out a TF F4U that has been sitting on the shelf for 3 years... uncompleted. Bout ready for the maiden. Don't let the naysayers drag you down, the people that benefit (and really and truly care about your posts) out number the S#@!heads 1000:1. Welcome back.

Sincerely,
Pete Mandeville
