    TOA, Nope, at least not as of this AM. However, if you'll go to the beginning of this forum, the stl files are posted about half way down page 1, as I recall. I am printing those now. If you don't find the files there, let me know and I'll try to post 'em here in a zip file. Best, LB

              You bet!!! George is so right.... We can store up a giant pile of aircraft and then have time to only fly one (or a few) a day. But if you share this wonderful hobby with friends and folks you don't even know, it is amazing!!!!! You share knowledge, but also a moral code of ethics that lives between pilots and their counterparts.... It is almost like a religion onto itself, not to get too preachy. I have never met an R/C pilot who would steal from you.... Just saying!!! They might lie about how good they land.... LOL LOL

                  • Roger that.... I used to own a bar and some of the vice officers that came in the place were just as dirty as the guys wearing colors..... R/C is a step away from that for sure bro!!! That is why I always carried a firearm. And still do, just for ****s and giggles!! LOL You know what I mean.... Love you buddy!! Give your Dad a hug for me from Texas!

                      • I have this plane on order. Wondering if the MR Rc sound system will fit without problem. Even better with 2 speakers?

                          SanJoseDale, Welcome to the "Squawk". It seems looking at the pics and the size of the 3DPUP cockpit parts I printed for this Corsair there is plenty of room for the pilot to run around inside the thing. Check out Tired Iron's pictures at the beginning of the forum. Where there's a will there's a way. Best, LB

                            The wings are hollow so you may be able to put speakers in them with a little surgery.

                            • Day 891: I got three flights on the Corsair today with the FMS four blade 1700mm corsair prop...stock prop is 18X12X3 and the FMS is 17X10X4, I can’t tell any difference at all.

                              This is a very efficient plane, I got 16 minutes on a Roaring Top 6S 6250 and had 3.8v left.

                              • .stock prop is 18X12X4 and the FMS is 17X10X4... Isn't the stock prop 3 blade? 18x12x3 vs the 17x10x4? All the pics I have seen are three blade from Flightline. Not being a jerk, but just asking!! :Confused:;):Cool: I hope it is a three blade for the model I am going to depict... :Cool:
