I am very impressed with the Giant Scale Planes F4U Corsair.   The finish on the model it excellent and they put a lot of effort into scale details.   The flight performance is everything I hoped for from a corsair of this size - excellent!    The assembly process could be completed in 4-5 nights if you build it as shown in the manual without retracts.   Mine took quite a bit longer due to the modifications that I made.   Rest-assured that even in its stock configuration, this aircraft is well worth the money.    I recently noticed that GSP has some new warbirds coming out including a Hellcat, Spitfire, and Focke Wulf.   If you are not into spending 100's of hours on constructing and finishing a warbird from a kit, then look to Giant Scale Planes, you will not be disappointed!

The RCV 90SP impressed the heck out of me!   For a power plant that is so small and lightweight, it really puts out a bunch of power.   The compact design makes it easy to install in just about any warbird and the 2:1 gear reduction gives you the ability to swing that large 2, 3, or 4 blade scale propeller.   Look to RCV for your next warbird project!

The Robart retracts are a beautiful addition to any scale model.  The 615 Rotating Retracts, Oleo Struts, and Scale Tires really enhance the appearance of this Corsair.  As long as they are properly installed, they are very reliable.   Be sure to add a set of Robart Retracts to your next model!

An finally, the McDaniel On-board Glow Driver.   This is the first time I have used a device like this.  I am so used to attaching a glow driver to the plug, starting the engine, waiting for it to warm up, and then removing the driver.   Not anymore!  The McDaniel system is very reliable and makes starting the Corsair a real dream.  It does not take up much room or ad a lot of weight.   This product is a big  hit in my book and I am sure I will have several more models using one of these in the near future!
