I recently obtained a full built, but never flown royal corsair from a friend in a trade. Sheeting has seen better days so I've been stripping the covering and glassing it.
3/4ths of the wing has been glassed just have to do the top right side. I'm not using retracts and no this isn't going to be hanging from my ceiling, I'm going to fly it. Power is a o.s. .61 FX and 2 standard futaba servo's. one JR,and a futaba micro, and futaba receiver. My 16 year old flying buddy got it for $40 at a swap meet and he was the first to intall an engine and radio equipment in it. some pictures are attached. I bet a few of the older members are going to go nuts when they see a 19 year old with a royal corsair!

OH MY GOD!!!

As rare as these beauties are it looks like a handfull to restore. BTW no undercarriage bearers?was someone planning to hand launch this???

Im finishing a royal senior p51 mustang (built over a period of 12 years!!) and I have a royal b25 in the box as part of my kit collection. Its amazing how these kits were state of the art 20 years ago and now they just seem a pain to build compared to laser cut kits...

No I have the wire gear and williams bro's wheels! It is quite obvious that I'm not finished, but she should have the maiden either friday may 15th 2009, or on the weekend.

Have to hinge the ailerons, and rudder, secure the battery and receiver, and balance. Power is an o.s. .61 FX and guided by a Futaba radio.
