I bought a Saxton Corsair last year that is RTF. Hopefully I will get a chance to fly it for the first time this weekend, but would like to recheck the CG before I do anything. If anyone knows the CG for this plane I would appreciate it greatly. Also, I believe that the Saxton COrsair is the same as the Zirolli Corsair, but I could be wrong.

Thanks
Sung

Its suppose to be a copy of the Byron. I have a Zero and it an exact copy of a Byron.

Byron access work on it.

Confirm by demensions and use Byron info.

Sung, the Ziroli has a balance range of 5.0" to 5.5" back from the leading edge of the wing at the fuselage. The wing span is 93". The Byron is 85". This should let you determine which one you have.

Hey Sung!

I have seen this particular bird, its a beauty! Its a Ziroli made by Saxton... but uses foam core wings. I'll have Scott call you, he as the plan that Saxton put out.

Hope to see at the Giant Scale this Sunday... I will bring my spitfire... getting it ready this week.

Thanks for the relpies, I will check the wingspan again. I am sure its a copy of a Zirolli now.

Vic, if I can get everything sorted out, I will bring the Corsair, Mig 3 and possibly one of the Mustangs. It should be a lot of fun on Sunday, but I hear there might be a chance of rain that day. Any chance of you making it out on Saturday morning also?

Thanks to all who replied.

Scott, I talked to Ralph saxton himself, nice guy, and got the correct CG. Thanks for the number.

Hopefully I will see you guys Saturday morning, unless I have to go into work.

Thanks
Sung
