Amazing flying. I do enjoy your flights.

[ModelAVRChannel]

What a fantastic plane! I love mine. Welcome to the bent wing bird club...the FL is the best foam one out there in my opinion. Nice flying man...congrats!

[GreenerShadeRC]

Nice flying. Looks like you had quite a crosswind. Impressed with the plane and the batteries.

[ctrcflyin]

Great maiden!! I have this plane, and I have to say it is a trick to land. You did great dude!!

[chevyman]

Awesome maiden... I liked you custom message lol

[jaxduxford]

Awesome flight! I have always loved the Corsair. I wish those batteries were still on sale. I would grab a couple of those right now.

[HobbySooner]

I can just hear the intro to black sheep squadron playing as you take off! Great flying and I'm even more impressed that you have an affiliation with Motion RC! The way Brian Phillips and the Saylors talk about them you would think they don't work with anyone.

[RMC]

Congratulations on the successful maiden flight! This plane is one big bird and it flew on rails!!

[Isleofwightr.c-ecef]

Great maiden flight, 55% left after nearly 10 mins flying is awesome, great flying and the landings were nice except for a couple of bounces but hey you've never flown this plane before so very well done....jeff.

Congrats on the maiden! Anytime you can take home in one piece its a good day! Thats great on the flight time. Everybody seems to get good flight times on this model. Love Corsairs and looks like Flightline did it justice!

[davidcarroll]

What an awesome plane! Wow it sounds amazing and I’m sure would be a keeper if I were ever to afford one your enthusiasm was plain to see ❤Gods Blessings on you and your family as always xx

[Swissmonkeyvr]

big fan! you are a great pilot. A tip I got at my club for the corsair was to let off the elevator as soon as your wheels touch. that will eliminate that bounciness. thanks for the info and entertainment! your wife is doing a great job at filming!

[williewideback]

Nice Maiden, but one thing for sure is this warbird has some very tough landing gears lol,

[flyingtigerbazz]

sorry to mention this but the stars and bars on the wings are the wrong way round unfortunately but great flying, great plane and another great informative video from F.G.F.R.C.!...

[davidscobbie]

Good job flying. Nice maiden flight. I had my fingers crossed when you were landing hoping that there wouldn’t be any mishaps.

[rafaeltorres]

I had seen your build video but you left the radio set up ? the most important part 😮

62" wing span, wow thats impressive..

[SONICBOOM-]

Hahaha she really is a sweetheart 😁 how’s your gear holding up? Some guys on rcgroups say the gear can often fail on anything but soft landings.

[TheRCAviator]

1. If you can’t use 100% travel in high rates, either the control horn is too short or the servo arm is too long.
2. Assign the flap switch to the transmitter’s flight modes and use F-mode trim so that you can trim the elevator for the proper glide speed with the flaps down and the motor off.
3. The flap>elevator mix isn’t for level flight at full throttle.

I have always scared of the F4U you may have changed my mind.
