Long time Kevin. You need to get back into tunnel boats. Just a hop skip and a jump across NC to the biggest tunnel race in the world. Come on you know you want to.

It’s actually not for me….I got it for my Stepdad…he’s pretty bad off with Alzheimers and it not capable of putting this kit together any longer. I went ahead and purchased the ARF kit in stead as it looks like I’ll be putting it together for him….full retratcts, G62 Bisson Muffler etc. I don’t do RC any longer so I’m calling this his toy

You Corsair guys would drop a load if you knew what I was up to in my play time

I thru in some more "washout" in the wing when I was building the Corsair. Full flaps carrier style landings all day long.

Most all those carrier models need some washout in their wing tips or you will "tip stall" allot!

I built two Bearcats though, the Top-Flite and better, the Royal kit model,, both flew like the real mcCoy,

Real Hot Rods.

Jerr.

I actually got this one because it is supposedly easy to fly. My stepdad has around 20,000 hours in a myriad of planes and helicopters too . He's never flown RC but that's about all he can fly now that he can fly now that he cant pass a flight physical. I haven't flown an RC airplane in about 5-6 years ….although I figure I can handle this too. I fly the real ones pretty regularly (not the warbirds but the tamer family carriers ). Can you say Riley Rocket?? Anyway,,…the biggest problem for me at the moment is figuring out how to program these freggin flaperons!

I figure if he busts it up,…a new wingset is only about $175 and a case of Guiness is only about $15. hopefully everything else will be salvageable

I’m actually planning to mount the gear with a weak mounting so that it will break before bending ( I have about $300 in the landing gear............…call me a cheapskate).

what radio are you using mabey i can help

A G62 seems large but I guess it is a 1/5th scale,, the weak landing gear mount will probably limit you to one

flight so you can hit the Guiness straight away :lol:
