The Corsair came with Robart retracts, include valve and large tank, and Futaba servos installed for the flaps and ailerons. The original builder for some unknown reason stuck the air chuck for the retracts in the side of the fuselage, still scratching my head over that one. His wing sheeting sucked too. With all its warts it was still a great deal.
Whatever I decide it has to wait until Pinky Saito and the Pink' N Poke get into the air.
Side note: Four 50cc fliers started a new flying field 4 miles as the crow flies from house. The runway is 150' X 500' of grass and I have been invited to join them. 3 of them fly scale Warbirds, the fourth guy is a pattern flier. They are already AMA affiliated and registered with the FAA.
I know a guy that had a Top Flight Mustang .60 with an OS 65AX. it was fast enough and would climb out much better than I thought it would had. I would think the the OS 65AX would be a bit faster than the FA65. I say buy the 82.
