R/C F4U Plane Corsair - Repaint of 400mm

[@mikeday62]

This has to be the finest detailed 400 mm V-1 Corsair.

Thanks for the comment but their version 2 is really nice. I could have added more transfers and was considering that but in the end just wanted to change the blue. Cheers for the comment.

Fantastic great work looks brilliant 👍

Thanks Chris I was even happier when I sprayed a satin varnish over it. Went even darker as you might see on the flight video coming next.

YEEEEESSSSSS!!! You gotta try taking that tail wheel off the corsair though. That one is for certain retractable. And among all of my models they all have the same snap in design none of them are held in by the glue although some were reinforced with it. Perhaps puffing up and seeping in when they put the tail wheel slot in.

If weather ok might fly soon.

@@Calvertfilmpls do. I hope it’s without the tail wheel! 😆 very well done!

[@Calvertfilm]

@@muscalay7516 Well it should be but I decided to keep it as Volantex made it, so it's still on. Also the rudder decals are in the wrong place. And there are other decals I could have added but didn't. I wanted it to look as if they made it but people might double take who had the original V1.

@@Calvertfilm understandable. Those tail Wheels click right back in so if ever you do take one off during flight no worries because it clicks back in just like the front wheels. They may be tough to remove because of excess glue that puffed out of the slot when they installed the rear wheel but I assure u they’re meant to click in and out.

@@muscalay7516 Yes although once it pulled a whole load of foam too. I guess it varies from model to model.
