Scale Meister F4u Corsair practice flight
Просмотров 592Месяц назад
Another great flight with the Corsair. I’ve been having trouble with the retracts so this was a check flight before the open day at the club back at the end of May. Thankfully they worked a treat and back to normal service. Enjoy.

Heinkel He 111 debut flight at LMA Sleap 2024

Well the Heinkel made its first show appearance after over 20 years in the making. Weather on Saturday was overcast as per usual with UK weather but it took its place in the sky with other large bomber aircraft and flew superb. Landing was a bit of a heart stopper. I had thought the B17 had been moved off the runway and Heinkel came a bit too close as it parked itself on the edge of the runaway...

Another test flight completed. Still a 90 degree crosswind but this flight was exploring a little more of the flight envelope at slower speeds. Landing was difficult again and had to have a few go arounds but got her back safe. 🤩

We travelled back to the test flight facility in Carmarthen to get some more check flights in on the Heinkel. The weather was glorious but we had a 90 degree crosswind to deal with which made the landings difficult but it’s a great test for the model. Thankfully she performed really well and subsequently after 4 flights achieved the sign off we’ve been working towards for the last 3 months. Loo...

Test flight number 2. Wind picked up and almost a straight crosswind on the runway. the Mist rolled in and really fine rain. The best weather for cutting your teeth on a large model. Very locked and the weather didn’t bother it all. Really pleased with the 2nd test flight. Can’t wait to fly it again. 👍🤛🤩

    Chiefy, never mentioned it before, But your finish is really nice on the Corsair. Especially since its more of the funscale original type build.. The finish makes it look very scaled out. I have my wing mostly framed up. Working on a couple planes.. Framing mostly... not able to do finish work right now as I am building away from home... Love those gentle Corsair flying habits..

      @@foodstick I know the chap that did all that work. I fly with him in the Dawn Patrol. He glassed it and spent ages on rivet detailing and simulating the flaps on the wings. He did a fantastic job. When he acquired it the nose had been taken clean off up to the cockpit. You wouldn’t even know it had been smeared down a runway. Fair play. I think I’ve said before I love flying this plane. It’s my all time favourite go to. Such an easy plane to fly with no nasty vices. I think you’re gonna love flying yours fella when it’s finished. I’m the same at the minute. I’ve almost got my 1/4.5th Hurricane ready for paint and then I’m moving on to finish my Seafury. That’s glassed just need to get the detailing in it. Thats having a Moki250 in it so I’m really looking forward to getting that in the air. Next year fingers crossed. The weather gods have been pretty bad to us in the UK. It’s either raining or blowing a gale. Looking forward to some more settled weather in September to get my fix before the winter sets in. Happy flying dude and thanks again for keeping my views active. Cheers buddy 🤛 I think I got some more footage to upload so I’ll sort that out next week. Take care and happy flying 🤛🤩

    Chiefy, did you end up mounting the wing tabs into the center spar section like the plans? One bolt ..I think the plans actually call for a spring device to hold the pin in position. I was thinking a bolt and blind nut setup.. trying to keep it simple and light.

    • @CheifyRC
      @CheifyRC Месяц назад

      @@foodstick hey fella. Mines as per the plan. The outer panel is secured in with just one pin shaped as an L and undercarriage clamps used to secure in place. Here’s a link to these so you know what I mean. www.rcworld.co.uk/acatalog/Undercarriage-Clamps-Single-6SWG-Pk4-F-RAA1055.html#SID=438 I was worried about it at first but it works a treat and holds the outer panels in just fine. Using a bolt and a blind nut will be equally as good. One thing though the channel on the centre section is a tight fit so bolting them together could close it up enough to make it hard getting the outboard panels off. In the winter the wood swells just a smidge which makes them difficult to get on or off. 🤛best of luck matey and I’m looking forward to the maiden already 🤩👍

    Schönes Modell und sehr schönes Video. Eines würde mich aber mal brennend interessieren. Warum müssen die Modelle wie Hunde an der Leine zum Startplatz geführt werden????? Ich werde es nie verstehen. Egal welches Video ich mir hier auch auf RUclips anschaue, immer wieder begegne ich diesem Phänomen. Scheinbar sind entweder die Modelle nicht in der Lage, dieses selbstständig durchzuführen, oder aber die Modellbauer haben panische Angst davor, ihre Modelle in die Freiheit zu entlassen. Echt krass und ehrlich gesagt wirkt es auf mich verstörend.
