RE: Don Smith planes
Mel2498,
I am finishing up on a 1/8 scale Top Flite F4U-1A Corsair with all the mods I plan on using when I start my Don Smith 1/4 scale 10 foot wingspan F4U-1A Corsair. There are 2 other builders that have agreed to do a group build of this plane when we finish what were working on now. I have everything for the build except the retracts, wheels, radio gear, and misc. odds and ends. It will be powered by a 3W 200 cc 20 hp gas engine swinging a 32" diameter 3 blade Solo prop. The other post was correct. It is going to be close to $7,500.00 and maybe more before it's all said and done. It will be a while yet but there will be a Don Smith build on here soon. Keep your eyes open for when we start. This has been my dream and I finally took the plunge for a Big Bird!!! I will also have a Thread on RCSB site.
