KMP Corsair
 
Has anyone any experience with their new Corsair model? I see some come up for sale as second-hand, so it makes me wonder what's wrong with them. Are there any major problems with them?? Any info would be great as I'm interested in getting a large Corsair.. Thanks..

Its a great plane , new kit , there was one released about 7 or 8 years ago , very rare to find any around , but there were problems with color match between outer wing panels and inner wing panels ect .
The new Corsair is very very nice

The oil coolers are are not the same on each wing. I believe one needs to be reversed. Since they are moulded into the center sevction you can not change their position.The flaps are a nightmare to assemble so I have heard. Best to wait till they get all of the bugs worked out. Heavy plane for it's size. Not sure it will be fun to fly at this time. One of the aileron servo hatches are reversed. The manual has a lot to be desired. Not a good ARF for the beginner.

wow ,thats killing the plane , I dont think its that bad , the quality in my opinion is super , the flaps are simple to fix , just like so many other arf planes its a simple tweek.
The center section is total composite and very scale , as stated the coolers are wrong and yes I will fix them
I am doing my ground work now (research ) I will be adding scale details to the flaps , an interior kit and scale doors on the wells .
Also retractable tail wheel .

Yes. For $550.00 that is killing the plane for me.
