TOPA0704 Giant F4U Corsair Gas ARF 50-55cc,86.5". Overview
Over 12,000 Corsairs were built during its eleven-year history — a number which ranks it as one of the most popular and recognizable fighters of WWII. It was instrumental in breaking the Zero’s air superiority in the Pacific theatre and earned the nickname “Whistling Death” for its fighting effectiveness. Despite the Corsair’s popularity, the work required to build the gull wing prevented many R/C pilots from flying one — until now. Gold Edition ARF engineering has reduced months of building work to just hours of simple assembly, and created a convenient way to enjoy the “bent-wing” bird on a giant scale. Features
Construction: Balsa and plywood with molded-in panel and cowl flap lines
Covering: Top Flite flat finish MonoKote
Wings: Balsa and ply with aluminum wing joiners, main landing gear is located on inner wing panel and remains in place when the outer panels are removed allowing the fuselage to be walked to and from the field
Aileron Control: Dual servo, prehinged flaps on center section and outer panel are linked with a phenolic tab, once linked they function as one surface requiring only one servo per wing half
Cowl: Painted fiberglass with hidden mounting screws and replica radial engine with pushrod tubes and spark plug wires
Cockpit: Detailed instrument panel with recessed gauges
Tail Cone: Painted fiberglass
Spinner: Two-piece machined aluminum hub
Gasoline Tank: Approximately 24oz (720cc)
Wheels: 4.5" (114mm) diameter main wheels, 2" (51mm) tail wheel treaded rubber **Does not include fixed landing gear** Strut covers and functional tail wheel doors with reinforced mounts for Robart landing gear (not included)
