FlightLine 1600mm F4U 1A/D Corsair - Flight Review #2 - Motion RC EU 

I really liked how you talked us through all your maneuvers.

very happy to see stuart in front of the camera again youve been missed.

Beautiful plane guys, great flyin Stuart

Wow, I thought my ears were playing tricks on me. Its brings a warm smile to my face to hear and see you Stewart. Great flying. I'm glad your back on the screen. Cheers

Just bought this model and, like you, I changed the livery to VMF 214 The Jolly Rogers paint scheme. Also recently purchased the 1600mm Spitfire. Added invasion markings to that beauty. The Spitfire is the best behaved Spitfire I've ever owned. Great products all the way around.

great review, looks like a lot of fun

I enjoy everything you guys are doing with the hobby! and its grate to see you again cheers 🍻, hope to see an EDF globalhawk sooner than later 😉😉

Really great flying and such a cool looking plane😎

Great video my friend and one amazing bird. It looks so good in the air and I just love that third landing. Perfect. Thanks for posting and big salute from Slovenia, Pilot Robert

Great looking plane, like your choice of livery. Also, thanks for the detailed review on flight characteristics. I'm ready to maiden mine and really appreciate the tips you provided on takeoffs and especially landings.

Great flight Stuart.

I have enjoyed watching the entire MotionRC crew. Wonderful people. Great company.

Great video stuart....Corsair looks great... Looking forward to getting my own in the air...

Beautiful video Stuart and Tom! A great presentation of a beautiful scale model. Very nice flown and well filmed. Clearly explained. You are a specialist. Nice also the runcam images from the air. Compliments👍

Great video and I LOVE the yellow paint.

Stuart, I just want to say "Thanks". The way you talk your way through the maneuvers is extremely helpful to us that are trying to improve our flying skills and don't have a personal trainer! You explained some things that I have found myself doing, and not knowing why and gave tips to help with things I have been trying to fix. I appreciate what you do. Oh, and my FlightLine F4u will be here Tuesday and the Callie Graphics "Marines Dream" decal set shortly after.

Great vid Stuart, thanx.

Beautiful plane and a great video thanks for posting this. Greetings from the US.

So cool!

Great job Stu 👍😎!!!

Great model, very stable characteristics ...

Nice vid Stuart & Tom, thanks for spending your time showing us how these new Motionrc planes perform on a typical european grass runway! Greetings from Belgium, Geert

sounds great!

Stu, nice to see you, haven't ordered from Hobby King since you left, glad to see your still in the hobby!!

i just ordered one cant wait

It was great to buy a large scale Warbird and NOT have to say, “I wish..”. Like in “It could take a bigger battery”, or “it was faster”, or “had a bigger prop.” The 1600mm Corsair on the maiden was fast, predictable, easy to fly and accommodated both a 5000 and 6000 6s battery. Nothing on the plane needs to be upgraded. Out of the box it’s a head turner at the field. For those new to the Flightline version of the Corsair be ready for some HARD LEFT PROP TORQUE. After two aborts on takeoff, I lowered the flaps to mid, and for whatever reason the hard left went away and it took off scale. (Rudder high rate was 90/30 and without flaps I couldn’t get the Corsair off the ground before snapped left. Could just be me, but be prepared for it on your maiden) The only plane I own I could compare the FL Corsair to would be the FL P-38. And there’s no comparison other than the wingspan, and once trimmed out they both are a dream to fly. Looking forward to the 1600mm Spitfire when it’s back in stock.

Great time to be in RC airplanes. (Thanks: edited)

Thanks Stuart.

I freaking love the corsair, dynam 1200mm was first plane. Wore it slap out! Been through several others since, including phoenix 46-55 balsa with an os 65 shoe horned in (damn tree). If i had room in the hanger, the bird cage version would be here already! Maybe I'll crash something and room will magically appear in the hanger. Now motion rc has me wishing to crash! DAMN!

Muy padre tu juguete felicidades

Stuart, great video, thanks!! My Corsair is almost ready for maiden flight (if we can ever get some decent weather!). A couple questions, please: 1. what amount of down elevator mixing settings did you use for mid- and full-flaps? 2. what amount of right rudder trim did you end up with for your plane? Thanks!!

Hey Alpha, I flew times ago the 1500mm-version from FMS. What about a video done by myself, comparing those? Love flying the FMS but this looks like a little more flyable cause of working flaps. Like that so much!

The Corsair looks awesome, can you do a video of the flightline 1600mm Spitfire.I would like to known your thoughts on both models.

Good video, nice plane. I like the go pro camera. It would be really cool if you could mount go pro at cockpit???

Really nice to see some good focus on warbird/taildragger technique. Second and third takeoffs were brilliant. Not too much fan of the opposite rudder stuff though. Sure, great for display passes, but for normal turns you want to be doing the exact opposite: Positive rudder, opposite aileron (to counter the natural rudder to roll mix). Standard coordinated turn in other words. Seeing how benign the stall is, she could probably be landed a lot slower, with higher nose and more active throttle, but I completely understand not wanting to advocate that to the average customer.

Always the same guy giving the thumbs down on every video! Nice work again Stuart!

Nice too see stuart again :) will FlightLine ever make a 1200mm F4U 1A/D Corsair ?? as there is also a spit in 1600 and 1200 mm

Nice flying generally. Great model. However saying that you don't want to bank too much and use the rudder in the turn to stop the wing dropping is wrong. Doing this is called a skid and the inside wing then produces less lift and actually increases risk of a spin. Many RC pilots do this and some full size pilots too however. Other than for torque compensation rudder is only needed to compensate for the aileron causing adverse yaw. Once desired bank angle is achieved, ailerons return to neutral and no adverse yaw anymore so no rudder needed after ailerons are neutral. Gentle back pressure will control the nose and help the turn. Hate to see someone spin in on such a nice bird.

what in the quantum shift happened at 16:05 ??

I'll pay $500 for 5th scale. I've spent enough on park flyers. Let's do this MRC!!!

How does the Corsair fly compared to the 1600mm Spitfire?

And did you mix in any elevator with the flaps?

Hi Stuart, What paint did you use so it does not eat the foam ??

wing cam model?

Do a wheeled landing, it'll be smoother

I would love for some company to come up with some kind of magic surface for the foam planes, they don't age very well, paint keeps chipping away all the time :\

You said you were running 5s? Not 6s?

What scale graphics fit this size plane?

Good review......but take the British decals off or your plane will leak oil everywhere

Waaaaaaaay too much yappin
