RE: GROUP BUILD - Top Flite Giant Scale F4U Corsair

I've never tried this with the paint you are using, but with water based acrylics, I always thin it with alcohol rather than water. Try a little bit on a test sample first. This gives it a faster...

RE: 1/8 scale TopFlite Corsair Mods

Hey Tom,

Post has been edited.

But let me clarify. From reading the posts, it sounded like this started with vinegar and just went sour from there.

Let's build Corsairs here, not burn...

You know, I don't make many posts in here as I have yet to start my build and quite frankly following with anticipation of the current builds that are going on keeps me entertained.

I'm not sure about the others, but this one is not always on.

Identification lights (red, green, amber) only one color lit at any given time.

The red, green or amber light was only on...

RE: GROUP BUILD - Top Flite Giant Scale F4U Corsair

Hey David,

I'd like to think that the bomb release system is done and the website hasn't been updated. In any event, try to contact them to see if they have the items in stock and the status of...

RE: GROUP BUILD - Top Flite Giant Scale F4U Corsair

Thought I'd add a little treat for those of you doing the "Marines Dream" Corsair. I obtained a great photo a couple of years ago and have kept it to myself. Been working on the resize for the TF...

RE: GROUP BUILD - Top Flite Giant Scale F4U Corsair

RE: GROUP BUILD - Top Flite Giant Scale F4U Corsair

I have had my GS Corsair in the box now for four years. I've got the struts, the cockpit kit and the front faux engine. That is as far as I have gotten. While I should have had it built by now, my...

RE: Best Scale 1/5 F4U Corsair Kit

ScaleBirdman,

Just curious, What measurements are you starting out with to get these calculations. According to the figures I have, the Corsair had a 41 foot wingspan. At 1/5th scale that...

RE: Need held big time-Corsair/Saito Radial/on-board glow interference

an old thread, but still informative.

I was doing some research when I noticed you answered in your post that you use a Saito 5 Cyl engine. Because this is under the BIG Corsair column, can...

RE: F4U Corsair Top Flight Giant Scale

Sorry Bob, but what you say may be true for the actual corsair, but I believe you may be in error concerning the Top Flite version. Shortening the gear (compressing) would mean an even smaller tire...

RE: GROUP BUILD - Top Flite Giant Scale F4U Corsair
