    I like the way the airspeed was up on the landing. Realistic to the real one. They will fall out of the sky when too slow.

    Since I was in the Marine Corps and even before then I can truly appreciate the F-4u aircraft. As well as my hero Pappy Boyington. Your aircraft is really cool looking and flies great. But, just one question have you thought about putting Pappy Boyington's name right below the pilot? Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

    • @Thercgeek
      @Thercgeek  2 года назад

      I can’t take credit for this model, just the filming of it. Boyington’s name and kill markings were actually on a Corsair labeled “Lulubelle” which is different than this one. 😊.

  • @av8tore71
    @av8tore71 2 года назад +2

    Sure hope there is some sort of micro switch that prohibits the wings from folding while the airplane is in flight otherwise a flip of a switch would ruin your day

    • @Thercgeek
      @Thercgeek  2 года назад +2

      That’s a good point. I’m not sure how that’s setup. I’d expect there’s some redundancy there, but not sure what that may be.

      @@Thercgeek I'm an attorney by day (during the week) and an A&P (airplane mechanic) on the weekends. Most airplanes like the airliners and Corporate plane have what is called a "Squat Switch" mounted on the landing gear, when the weight of the aircraft compresses the main landing gear the little switch would be pressed so the reversers and only systems would work on the ground only NOT in the air or it could cause for a very bad day

      Oh for sure! The carf is the absolute top of the market for something like this. I see I misread the question a bit looking at it again. A plans built Corsair with a saito radial could be done for about $4k I think. And with something like that, you can buy stuff as you need it so the cost gets spaced out over time.

      @@Thercgeek dont think you misread his question just didnt want to discourage him with that price point. Even if someone wanted a 250cc class radial monster they could look at ums engines and pay 1/3rd the price of a moki and have a big bird.

    Looks good in flight-it’s a Corsair; how could it not? Sounds good too. But those colors are just wrong. How much harder would it have been to get them right?

      Honestly, a lot of folks just don’t know regarding the colors. I’ve seen plenty of full scale restorations that were the wrong colors too. Still a pretty model though!

  • @glennandrews7689
    @glennandrews7689 2 года назад +1

    No flaps??? Way, way, way too fast landing speed and much too steep approach. Sorry; the plane is absolutely gorgeous but you can tell most RC pilots are not real pilots (no offense meant by that comment, honest!). The landing approach on that beautiful bird should be set up; slow airspeed, set flaps, gear down, approach (Vx) angle should be power-on and at a glide rate; not shear drop! Bring that plane in nice and smooth and see the magic of large scale! Keep'r in one piece and look forward to seeing more vid's of Bayou Baby. :)

      Exactly!! Just likr with rich guys who buy super cars thinking they’re a f1 pilot.. money don’t get you skill. My guess is he doesn’t want to risk going too slow and stalling the plane
