FlightLine F4U-1A Corsair "Birdcage" 1600mm (63") Wingspan - PNP Reviews

4.7 Rating 143 Reviews
Tremendous scale airplane and proud to have it at the field once the restrictions have been down graded. The quality of the finish is better than all that I have seen.

Great looking plane in the air and nice to fly but beware landing this plane on grass strips as the retracts are rubbish and collapse and then the retract has to be rep[laced. A serious design flaw that needs to be addressed by the manufacturer immediately. Such a pity as the plane ticks all of the other boxes.

Excellent quality, good ground handling, and amazing sound. I highly recommend ordering the optional screw kit as my bird had a short screw on the blue box that didn't reach and a messed up gear door spring (two springs are in the screw kit), The prop is solid and puts out amazing amounts of thrust. The included decals are high quality as well. I highly recommend this bird.

This plane can fly both quick and nice and slow. Once you dial in flaps to elevator mix, she's nice and gentle. Great plane! Simple assembly, lots of battery compartment room. I DID need to add the additional cowling weights that are included. I fly with 6s 5000s as far forward as possible.

Gentle landings either crack retract unit case or bend jack screw. Came with first gear unit cracked. Bad from the get go. This is a shame because the plane is otherwise great. the landing gear durability is a key factor for flying, and a single touch and go can make the plane inoperable until you get a new unit to break again.
