RE: Flaps
Hey:
Well I flew the Corsair today without the flaps. The flaps are on the plane, but not functional until I can rig up another way to control them from what came with the ARF.
WOW is an understatement! Roll out was a bit touchy cause we had a bit of a cross wind and it wanted to weathervane but once in the air it flew great. Nice Corsair like rolls, biggggggggggg loops and had plenty of speed.
My knees were shaking so bad I didn't have the guts to try much more.
The thing flew on about 1/3 throttle.
The retracts worked flawlessly and it looked so clean on a low pass.
I'm very happy with it's performance.
One concern I have is the tail doesn't want to leave the ground without hammering the throttle.
Another concern is it is hard to see sometimes.
Happy Flying
Tom
PS: Now I can add the decals and do the weathering.
