been looking at the new bird in town! the corsair,.looks realy nice.,seems to have the correct lines plus looks like its ment to,.but must admit bit gutted to see the foam lumps in the finish.,is this how it will be in our shops or are they pre pruduction shots?...i guess when i get mine il have to get the sander out!!!!!............any thoughts on this?,,,

The construction is the same as the T28 so the finish will be the same. Trust me this material is much easier to repair. In the air, you dont see it anyway.

Mid August........ I wouldn't bet on it! We have been told September by the Distributors but we are reckoning it's going to be just before or even after Christmas.

I saw the reviews over on Youtube for the Corsair and it looks great. Big plus is the landing gear, brushless motor and lipo battery/charger as standard. But I believe there will be a version with no radio-gear

I'm planning on getting a Corsair but i'd have mine without the wheels as i fly over grass. The only thing is that this plane will be landing on its wings, whereas my spitfire and mustang land on their fuselage which is stronger.

Yep got to practice the landing before I get one!

I'm not sure the wings are going to like that, and when this does come out, spares will be sparse for a while.

Haha Yeah at first I noticed the star was on the wrong wing, then I realised the '19' was reversed too! :D

Apparently it's also got a 'proportional rubber' whatever that might be... :D

Great to see you are starting to carry spares for the Corsair :) I have a damaged Main Wing. Do you know when that part and its ancillary parts will be available ?? Thanks.
