Amazing Giant Scale F4U Corsair Maiden Flight - TRUE RADIAL SOUND!

Crank up the sound on this one, it sounds incredible! While looking for some footage for another video, I happened across this gem of a monstrous F4U Corsair maiden flight at an event from a few years ago. In addition to this being an immaculate model, the beauty is that because it was a maiden at an event, the airplane had the sky all to itself which means unhindered sound from the amazing Moki Radial engine it's powered with. The flight was cut a little short due to some landing gear troubles, but otherwise all and all, a successful maiden!

So realistic I expected the model pilot to give a thumbs up before take off. Sound and landing gear, awesome.

That slide on the end of the landing to slow it down. Damn nice ground work.

So cool. What an awesome model; great sound and detail. You can just feel the weight of that beast! Thanks for the vid.

Outstanding video Chris, as always. My favorite warbird with true radial sound, OMG I'm green with envy. The Tennessee background looks inviting, you and your family must be happy as a clam!

Beautiful model. The radial sound makes the illusion real.

Withought doubt, the finest model of a Corsair l have ever seen. Hade the takeoff been a 3 point lift off it would have been nearly impossible to tell from the real plang. Kudos!

Wow what a beautiful aircraft and awesome build! Brought back memories of watching Robert Conrad in Baa Baa Black Sheep with my dad back in the day when I was little. Thanks for posting this up!!

I love the sound of those Moki engines..

[DadsRCHangar]

What a beautiful Corsair, the noise was epic, almost a scale sound. I mean if you closed your eyes, it’s close 👍🏻

the taxi at the end looked sooo real! Wow!

[jettechdonatkins]

Chris fine job recording this great looking Corsair.I would love to see this one in person.Hope all is well in your new place.Thanks for this!

[scottgorman]

Ohhhh that is a beauty! Nice long take off....all the flaps deployed was a unreal look....nicely done model. Looks like after the landing you might have hit a repaired bomb crater since the plane bounced, someone needs to get on ground maintenance to flatten out that section.

Great video of an Amazing plane. Congrats to the Pilot for a rewarding Maiden Flight.

[SammyB]

With that back drop, it looks like an episode of Black Sheep Squadron.

[SanDiegoUteFan]

Hey Chris. BEAUTIFUL plane, MOKI and video! This is best viewed on a 65” screen with a good sound system!
Where’s the link in the description for the motor?!?! I wanna buy several of them. (In my dreams)
Keep up the good work.
