F4-U corsair with Radial engine

first flights of Corsair with Radial Engine
by tjd models

[@TechKnowCSS]

IMHO This is the Ultimate Plane, scale, motor. This is the exact setup I have dreamed of having since 1974. If ever this plane needs a loving home please let me know.

[@glydrjocky]

I love the way that radial powered through that GIANT loop! Beautiful build! Thanks for sharing.

[@kennyboy1215]

Thanks for appreciating it and your kind comments. Ken

[@MrMoth55]

I had to pop in and look again - damn nice engine and what a marvelous sound of the radial engine - I just love that sound ...

[@NHfiddle]

I wish they made radial engines when I was flying my Corsair. This is awesome. The closest we could get to a radial in the late 70s was a Wankel rotary. I know, not even lose, but it was a flush mount engine. I ran a OS Max Schnerle 80 in my planes, also had a P51B

[@100thbombgroup]

Wow, fanbloodytastic.I love the sound of that radial.very good flying. Thanks.

[@Szaby73]

Very nice plane, I think one of the most beautiful of all the fighters, and the engine sound is impressive. Mine is such a pure electric. Beautiful.

[@kiwibob72]

In a word ..... "STUNNING" ... no other word for it really!

[@kennyboy1215]

thanks for your kind comments!

[@lay3Rv2]

That plane has a very low stall speed. That landing was incredible in how slow you were able to fly. I love the flaps on it.

[@melted_cheetah]

geez! the best sounding RC f4u i've ever seen. nice!

[@modelmaker56]

My favorite Corsair video on KZbin... I keep coming back to watch and enjoy it from time to time....

[@JazzBassBloke]

its a famous American V8 auto engine. Fantastic Corsair and engine combo by the way!

[@sking0369]

The sound of that radial's got my grinner going.

[@stevecraignet]

That may be one of the sweetest sounds extant. It represents engineering far beyond the time. Wonderful! I could listen to that all day.

[@Gort54]

All it really needs is a Solo GAP 3 blade propeller! Nice Work!

[@bkm72]

Thats awesome. The sound of that radial completes the model.!! Well Done.!! I can feel my bank account taking a pretty good hit after watching this.!!!

[@TheDudeRc]

That thing is just sick! Love the sound and looks. Gonna have to go fix my F4U now. LOL!

[@sr633]

Sweet ! Sounded so real on take off -- power plus.

[@startazz]

What a sweet looking and sounding r/c plane mate,that is so wicked man i just love the corsair and that has to be one of the best i have seen on youtube so far mate,5*

[@givemetoast]

Great flying and sounding plane! It's obviously very light. It looks great for being so light.

[@scomyo3]

that is the coolest sounding rc vehicle EVER i have watched this vid over 50 times i bet

[@Bigfurry1975]

That was just "PLANE" awesome, ha, ha, ha !!! I think it would look better with a 3-blade prop though. I can't believe how fast that bad boy took off, Sweet!

[@Barnekkid]

The radial sure sounds nice.

[@batcho99]

Wow that came in slow! Impressed. Want one :)

[@EllmoPilot]

That sounds real!

[@Cherrytea558]

Amazing sound. Fly carefully.

[@radialnut]

What a great video. Beautiful plane, great flight, excellent camera work, simply grand. Is the power/wt ratio in this model similar to the real thing in scale? just lept off the ground. Thanks again for posting this : )

[@pushinold]

I would like to see more specifications on the airplane and engine.

[@ljfhello]

Ok, I c. That's really cool! Thanks for sharing.

[@atsui01]

[@wikeroy]

5 stars on all accounts!!!

[@Stratboy999]

That sounds great

[@RedLineTZ]

superb! the model of my dreams !! beautifully build and painted and perfect motor .. whats the brand of the radial motor? sound is awsome! congratulations!

[@lrmbvv]

big plane handled those winds like no big deal.

[@snusbag1]

5 cyl moki??? nice plane, nice machine, nice flight

[@FlingwingGolfer]

all it still needs is a 4 bladed prop, then it'll be PERFECT!!

[@kennyboy1215]

yes it is, flown by John Mason.

[@blownglasslide]

Hey Flightsimace, I can help out with that! Depending on what scale you want to build for, there are radials available from Saito engines, O.S., and, if you want to get really expensive, Technopower. Just google any of those names and you should get websites. Hope that helps! Good luck on your build!

[@radialnut]

imagine the line for ghosts? how do they stop others from cutting in front of them? i imagine if they died in one, they might not be too keen to get back in. its an awesome thought i think.

[@allanshoafrocks]

that hog's got some juice!

[@luismininascimento]

belissimo modelo que potencia de motor parabens

[@Formulabruce]

Who needs Drones!!! WOW!!

[@ilovslavo]

Yes F4-U corsair has low landing speed Especially It is because landing up the wind and the flaps is on too!! I have Parkzone F4U.

[@vetitoe362]

Started with three blades then went to 4 on later models.

[@EduBrasil2007]

Muito Bom... este motor é 10... Parabéns.

[@superjezz]

@barackuda But we all know that a lawnmower that sounds like this is worth every penny......

[@sgecko7]

Wow... that is one beautiful r/c plane... just don't crash it, please heheh

[@MrMoth55]

Keep as much fantastic flying machine, love the sound. how big is your engine and what muffler do you have installed. Greetings Mogens

[@anpmech]

lol, It takes off in 1 foot! Cool Corsair.

[@Ropinlizard]

sweet.

[@mnewbound]

gotta have one!

[@Rokit1man]

Wow.... that looks like lots of fun and that is a really nice plane. How much flight time can you get?

[@tisoy909]

what is the wingspan and isn't that saito 325? i didnt know moki has a 150 cc radial?

[@pinwizz69]

As a former USCG. aviation machinest mate 3d who was qaul,d. to do engine runups in HU16e Albatross,s with R1800s I can tell ya this lil, birds engine sounds are outta site ! She only needs a 3 blade prop and she,d give a lil, better flight performance. I love the smell of R.C. fuel burnin, in the mornin, sun ! Is this one of the German built scale radials ?

[@leadsolo2751]

I guess only radials allow that scale, true to life sound on rc models ...

[@astaschak]

my lord that is amazing. How fast does it go?

[@briansmobile1]

I think I just jizzed in my pants! ; P

[@Stuckinthemuck1]

Wish I was a rich kid too.

[@hbunnie1120]

Love the sound... Is that a 5 cyl?

[@givemetoast]

Wow.....

[@xKmotx]

Darned nice! Who makes this Corsair kit?

[@bkm72]

BTW....is there a build thread of this on rcscalebuilder? I'd love to read all the pages. I did a quick search, but cant tell for sure. User name? Nick Ziroli plans?

[@sprayframe]

i fly there!

[@modeler308]

Nice bird but wrong markings for the 3color paint (or wrong paint for the post-1947 markings, whichever you prefer)

[@JoseKagan]

yeah thats true!! Still that plane is way to small for a radial engine.

[@Ropinlizard]

2:15...carrier takeoff!

[@garethbest]

Dude, with a engine that sweet, how can you have a two blade prop on it? I highly encourage you to get a 3 blade!

[@zipperneck1321]

@Senteinal117 There's always one who uses the "C" word. Sheessh.

[@TWqme]

very cool - can anyone tell me @ how much $ is in a model of this sort?

[@STEELHORSE1975]

nice old war bird the japanees called them wispering death in ww2

[@ljfhello]

What engine do you use?

[@kochj0713]

gee, rolled out after 3-feet.... That needs more power!....

[@gregpacesigns]

can't belive you missed the take-off!!!

[@kochj0713]

Are you going to wring that thing out???

[@kochj0713]

I need a pit bitchTOO!

[@trondyne]

How fast was that? Looks >150...

[@jeffreydan]

engine?

[@deserteagle190x8]

I need one of those

[@B40SW]

Whistling Death not wispering death
