Default RE: Top-Flite 1/5th F4U Corsair ARF Group Build and modification thread


ORIGINAL: 3DFlight

Here is mine, finally finished. Work keeps getting in the way. The plane had plenty of thrust to fly with the Troy Built 3 blade prop. Still had to add almost a pound to balance. It is fast in the air. We had our Warbird flyin this past weekend and rain got us in the afternoon. www.blacksheepclub.org click on 2013 Warbird link.

Here is my gear operating, Robart electrics with the main gear doors driven by a micro servo on each side. They drive Sullivan #507 cables. They are in the wing right behind the wheel wells.

3D - Nice job on the corsair!! You've probably said some where what the size of the prop is but I can't find it. Could you tell me what it is and do you have a catalogue link?
Also the gear door setup works well. Do you have some photos showing the actual linkage?

You've done and excellent job and thanks for anything you can add.
