Jack, thanks for the words of encouragement.

I have a GP Super Skybolt with a Saito 120. I consider this the closest thing to a simulator that I have for the Corsair. From what I've read on this forum, It behaves the same (close to stall speed) as a Corsair. The Skybolt has a steep glide angle. I've found the best way to land it is to slow it during the final turn on approach then apply some power and fly it in.

Thanks for the tip on take off. I'm not one to hammer the throttle on take off and jump my planes into the air. I generally like to try to make my models look as real as I can in flight, so I'll be sure to let it roll out on take off. I have taxied the Corsair with some speed and found it to handle on the ground much better than I expected. I feel confident that I'll be able to take off with no problem.

I feel confident it will land.

What's left to be seen is how many pieces it goes home in. You never really know how well your flight controls are rigged until the wheels leave the ground for the first time.

Also the gear will probably stay down for the first flight.

I love flight test!
