Pops told me the gull wing on a Corsair can be a real bear to build for a rookie like myself, It is my favorite warbird, gotta love the Black Sheep!! There are some very inexpensive free flight kits to practice on though & the Corsair is available too. Done right it would make a nice piece to hang from the ceiling or just showcase it on a shelf. I'm doing one for my nephew's bedroom ceiling, hang it with fishing line. Mostly to ease back into buiding a kit, instead of ARFs. The LHS didn't have the Corsair so I got him a different little warbird but I'm sure Tower Hobbies has one in the Free-Flite kit section. Here I'll just get ya the link.
