I am not trying to steer folks away from this online forum, however if you would like to see the detailed build thread with pictures you can go to Īlso included here are the links to a couple of video's. Prop: Hobby Lobby three blade 9" pitched to 10"Ĭontrols: Aileron, Elevator, Rudder/ steerable tailwheel, Throttle, and RetractsĬovering: Dolcalum (PET, laminating film) Motor: Himax 2015 -5400Kv (brushless in-runner) Kit 1004 (Old version that included cowl and plans for F4U-1D version) I built many of the Guillow's kits in my childhood with little success so here is my chance to give back what I have learned to make childhood goals come to fruition, now.Īt any rate here are the details of the F4U-1D Corsair. It is very satisfying to convert a FF kit. Anyway the purpose of this post was to again share what I did to make this conversion and hopefully encourage others in this hobby to build and convert these great looking kits. My P-47 Thunderbolt had also been selected several months ago and Guillows included the links to Video of the model flying on You Tube. This series really makes for a great RC conversion.Īmongst some very nicely built and finished models last month my Corsair was selected for the photo of the month. This is my 4th conversion and second in the 1000 series. I thought I would share my most recent RC electric conversion of kit # 1004 of the F4U-1D Corsair. I spend most of my time over at RC Groups though. Hi everyone, I come over here and checkout this builders forum every so often to see some of the amazing builds of these kits.
