Love love love the corsair. This model in particular is well built and flys amazing. Prob the best flying corsair ive ever owned. Thats over nitros and gassers. Now too the 4 stars. The paint guys… gotta start putting paint codes down for your planes. Ughhhhh. According to the internet gods the blue and grey paint scheme is actually a WWII navy mark up. But yall know that lol. Anyways the colors that are the actual colors according to the “real deal” internet findings arent the same on the plane. The blue actually is really close. Looked good covering the black servos etc. the grey is waaaaayyyy offff. Hahahahaha. Ive been digging around in Vallejo paints some and found a close match being curtis grey. But anyways the mis match paint actually looks good. Added a weather look so i went back and accented with black and dirtied her up. In closing… good models guys and let me know on those paint colors !!!! Just messing. Later

The airplane went together very nice. Fit and finish very good. If there are any complaints that I have would be the long delay on the retracts,and the red led navigation light is quite weak compared to the green led. Haven't flown for a maiden flight yet. But I will be doing that soon an will give my review at that time

On maiden taxi at 1/8 throttle the right strut fractured at the rotation pin and collapsed. The rotation pin hole bored thru the struct is too big only leaving 3/4 mm on one side. Will call Motion RC later today to discuss design flaw and fix.

Very nice model; seriously thick & hefty, nice and roomy for battery and electronics. Quality throughout; very happy with this purchase, went together easily, has nice wing fasteners for quick transport breakdown. I have yet to fly it due to weather.

Received that package with no damage and only in 4 days to Ontario Canada. Planehad no damage, went together very well. Flew it next day on 6S 6000. Plane flies beautiful, one click down trim needed. No wind that day, full flap landing. Wheeled it on perfectly. Thank you Motion RC. Had great service. Also bought BAE Hawk, not flown yet.

Easiest airplane to build. You don't really build it as much as screw it together.Flying wise, it's very smooth. If you have any taildragger, or war bird experience this is Eazy Peezy! Note: Always land with full flaps!
