Learning from the best in our little community I picked up a new distraction, errr.... project. A club member had this airplane for years now and never flew it. The price was too good to pass up so I jumped at it before he could change his mind. This is the same guy I got my Curtiss Hawk from.
Here she is fully assembled. No flaps or retracts just yet but all the main control surfaces are.
Just a mild size comparison up against our 3-person sofa.
Another size comparison next to the Corsair.
The wing root on this airplane is massive. I do NOT have small hands but it makes them look quite puny.
The DLE 26cc gasser before it was removed along with the associated hardware like pesky throttle servo and ignition cutoff servo. The whole nose has been emptied now.
And she has been safely stashed in the corner until the Corsair nears completion.
Watch this space. I do hope to have this one ready to bring to FF this year.
