Mega16/15/5, 2100 3s Lipo, Castle Creations Phoenix 25 (or whatever the current equivalent) a couple of the tiny Hitec hs55s and build that little 'cat I sent you!

a Mini Ultra Stick is a good flyer too.......

Status: offline 		I'll build it eventually but I just can't find time right now. That's part of the appeal of buying one of RTFs. Plus, I don't know jack about electrics. That sentence you just typed was like a foreign language to me.
I'm guessing the Mega 16/15/5 is the motor?
In that case, the Phoenix 25 must be the esc?
Also, I can get a Parkzone Mustang, Spitfire or Fw-190, ready to fly- with radio, battery and transmitter- for the cost of the motor, esc and battery. It even includes and extra battery pack and free shipping.

Luke had dropped off RCU as an active posting member but I believe drops in under different names from time to time. His talents and insight are missed.

We have exchanged emails and phone calls and I miss his posts and was curious as to what he was doing now.

Status: offline 		Hi there,
Is Paul still out there? His Royal Corsair is the best workmanship I've ever seen. I read through the whole thread it is fantastic. What a nice guy too. Anyway I would be interested to know how his Corsair flew, and to see any other projects he's working on. One can learn a great deal from someone like this, and also gain inspiration for new projects!

Status: offline 		Very informative thread on the Corsair.........................It is long to read, I'm interested to see how Luke built his flaps on his Royal Corsair, perhaps I can apply the same method to the H9 Corsair. Any of you guys know which posts in this thread it's located or explained ?. Thanks

Status: offline 		Ah.....here you are Luke............spending too much time on the beach. First off, your Corsair project is really terrific especially the detailing. I was just wondering if you had posted any pictures of the flaps while you were building them. Especially the connections of the flaps themselves. I have the H9 Corsair and planning to add flaps to it. Thanks.
