Thanks, I did the horn reinforcement already. Was wondering about the spinner - one of the two screws holding the prop spinner onto the shaft have stripped the threads (only into aluminum...), so I was thinking of replacing that with something decent. No real hurry. Doesn't look like the weather will break for another few weeks

Yeah I would recommend doing that before her maiden. Also put her CG forward of what they say unless you want a wild maiden. When you get used to her and want to do the funky chicken dance in the air then put it back. You can ask kiwiflyer about my maiden flight it had me on my toes and it was setup as per the instructions.

hi Kiwiflyer I have been toying with a purchase of a Corsair PNP give me your honest opinion and is yours still stock Cheers


HI cpk,

I have to admit to being biased about the Corsair as she was the plane that got me truly addicted to flying. It is a great scale plane to fly, the gull wing looks awesome flying around the park. The stock motor is a little underpowered with the supplied battery from parkzone (but then what motor isnt with their batteries), however upon using some 3S 2250's from a mate the difference in performance was incredibly better. She has wonderful handling characteristics at both slowflying and topend as well but you can slow her right down and almost drift around the park at low level and still feel like you have complete control with very little risk of stalling. My only gripe is that I found the undercarrige to be weak and as it is located and supported in the foam wing if you have a rough landing you can tear chunks of foam out of your wing. However having said that, I made up some bracing struts that attach to a flat plate and ball joint which support the undercarrige leg really well and havent had any further probs with them.

I have flown a trojan as well and I think Jackos right when he says the trojan is the better plane performance wise, but if you want slightly less performance and great looks then the Corsair rules the skys. I have not regretted buying her at all.
