Default Folding Corsair wings

Earl Aunn who is one of the Scale Master guys in Oregon did this on an F4U that he flew on the scale circuit a few years back. It was an absolutely beautiful model and left the pits with the wings folded. As he taxied the plane out the wings came down and the canopy closed. It even had a working Radar screen on the instrument panel. Unbelievable detail. It was done up in the F4u-5 night fighter paint scheme. It won best of show honors at the Northwest Hobby Expo and it was well deserved. Find Scalemasters website and you should be able to contact Earl as he is very active in that organization.

Last time I talke to Earl which was a couple yrs back said was like 20 dollars for his plans and 25 dollars for the locking mechanisms. I need to get ahold of him again myself for my Ziroli Corsair I wanna do. But rtemember his locking mechs may not work on the TF plane as it isnt as big as his was.
