Vought F-4U Corsair was the most powerful American airborne fighter aircraft of World War II. After solving the initial problems (too stiff suspension and poor visibility complicate landing on aircraft carriers) along with Grumman Hellcat care of wiping out the Japanese Air Force in the sky over the Pacific. Corsair has successfully operated and vbarvách British Fleet Air Arm and the land-based aircraft in the Marine Corps squads. The armament of the US Navy and Marines lasted until deep into the 50s, when the fighter-bomber role contributed significantly to capture the initial onslaught of communist North Korea at the beginning of the Korean War.
Designers large free-flying low-wing fighter mock-up designed to drive by rubber; instructions and schedule allow you to build a model as well as free-flying model driven internal combustion engine 0,8ccm, the captive model with combustion engine 1,5ccm or as a static model with sophisticated maketovými details including cabin interior museum-quality 1:16 scale (this design captures special drawing "Action Plan").
The model is a classic balsa structure in Rozsyp with předseknutými wooden parts, accessories maketových large amounts of vacuum-molded plastic, plastic injection molding parts drawn by a předseknutými parts of "plastic plywood", a light and strong material replacing conventional plywood. The hull is constructed of course true minimaketářskou technology partitions a plurality of longitudinal enabling faithfully reproduce the rounded shapes. Built in two stages - thanks to "split" in the vertical plane stand directly on the countertop first half of the fuselage, and then to her "dolepíte" second half. This ensures that even complicated shapes hull stand straight and symmetrical, without needing any special preparations. Given that it is a model for advanced builders, you should already have prior experience with more classical building and test-flying models powered by rubber. < / P>
Corsair is also suitable for conversion to a RC model with electric drive and combustion engine drive 0.8-1.2 cc - although construction plan does not offer these options for experienced modeller would not be a big problem.
Kit contains: balsa předseknuté parts, balsa wood beams, předseknuté parts from plastic plywood, vacuum-molded parts Scale (bonnet, engine ...), clear acetate molding canopy, plastic propeller shaft and head, rubber volume rubber (5x1mm) steel strings on chassis and other small parts, plastic wheels, lining paper and handle rocker for tethered model, a large sheet of wet decals, construction plan.
Tip for construction: Předseknuté parts NEVYLAMUJTE! Turn the plank, place it on a work surface and lightly sand the fine sandpaper (no. 220 or finer). The parts can then be easily separated; if they still have some wood fibers "tied" to a cutting board, carefully separate the part of the pattern, using a sharp knife (suitable eg. Excel No.1 knife with a blade No.11).
Treatment of rubber harness: The new rubber carefully wash it in soapy water and allow to dry. Then, lubricate it with castor oil (sold in pharmacies) or silicone grease to lubricate fishing lines (available in most stores fishing equipment). After flying harness with the model, remove and store it in a sealed plastic bag. Lubricated rubber volume unfolds smoothly and with less friction - provides more power and last longer. The new bundle is also advisable to first fetch - for the first 2-3 years to film only 80-100 rpm, only then can safely shoot more.
