Warbird_1.....454 is right on the money...usually the "Z" F4U comes in from 30-34 lbs.....mine is 33 lbs....and flys great on a Q-75..........How did you get up to 40 lbs?.....Bill....

Warbird_1....You might consider an engine that will help displace added nose weight.....If its scale flying thats a priority....just reduce the throttle a tad.........Bill.....

Warbird_1....Most of the TopGun airplanes are usually marginal on power to hide engines inside the cowls......although on occasion some show up with adequate power.....The "Z" F4U @ 40 lbs with a G-62 will fly but wouldn't want to guess at its performance......Our "Warbird" group will be there this weekend....doing part of the Half-Time show......Bill.....

No way will a 40 lb Ziroli Corsair fly with a G-62.
Ain't gonna happen.
My Corsair was tricked out at 34 - 35 lbs. Flew great with a 4.2.

Mmmm... The force is strong with this one it is.
Fly with authority it will not.
Venture not to the dark side(bad attitude), or in trouble you will be. LOL

My guess is that it will "fly" at 40# on a G62 but he will have to carefully plan his maneuvers. Loops won't be the strong suite.
Mine flies very well at 36# with a Brison 5.8 and slows down quite well for landings. The flaps are very effective.
