Hello good people!
Reporting in to inform that I was totally successful in re-maiden my Hangar9 F4U-1D 50 size Corsair Electric!
Was rather windy but this almost 8-pound RC model was not affected in the least! Wind was straight down the runway from the South and it helped in landings as this model has no flaps and really doesn’t need them.
For those that have NOT been following my Repair Adventures on this model then, here are the links to follow along:

The F4U Corsair was flown with the 5-Cell, 4,000mAH 30C Turnigy and two 4-Cell, 4000mAH 30C GForce Elite Series Lithium Polymers!
It was a delightful Wednesday morning and stayed about 3 hours!
