RE: 1/4 Scale F4U-1A Don Smith Plans Build
I emailed Darrell three weeks ago simply to remind him that I needed a set of gear for my plane. He did respond stating that a few changes were needed before the gear was ready. I have not heard from him since.
Since there has been some discussion regarding the weight of the 1/4 scale Corsair, I decided to put my plane on the scale today. The weight of the plane minus the electronics, engine, main retracts, ailerons and flaps, was 24lbs. I believe my plane can be completed with a flying weight under 55 lbs.
