The Corsair Gets a new Power Plant
I just put a new outrunner in the Corsair, and figured I may as well go all the way, and make it look like its got a P&W R-2800.

Wow, awesome work. This is great.
Don't fly it, just put it on the wall to look at it.

Thanks LP! Yeah, I know I'll probably just end up smashing it up on a rough landing
 but if I do, then I'll just have to fix it, or build another one. No big deal. Anyway, the plane is way to good not to fly.

Here's mine I did out of foam for my F4-U, has some plastic and a little wire to finish it off. Still got the radial, plane was dumbthumbed into the ground.

Holy crap, that looks amazing! How did you make the rocker arms? I tried making some out of foam, but they were too dang small to work on. I just gave up and used some pushrod tubing so you could just barely get a sense that there was something there.
