I guys,
Can anyone please share a good copy of the birdcage F4U1A corsair nomenclature locations. I understand that this FL kit provides basic decals but the placement document is not very detailed. I purchased the Callie Graphics decal set and cannot find any help showing clear locations for most of these decals for this version.
Thanks for any help that can be provided, such as large PDF documents etc.

Just got around to unboxing my Corsair this week after getting it 3 weeks ago. Initially I just pulled the top wing out to look at it but now that I’ve pulled the fuselage I’ve had one of those awwwww crud moments. The pilot is not glued down well. He’s sitting canted to the left, with the right base up about ¼ inch. Guess I’m going to be prying the canopy off to reseat him but it kind of ticks me off because I don’t want any white spots where the paint is screwed up.
And to top it off, this is the 2nd Flightline plane that I’ve had this happen to. The pilot in my Bearcat came lose within a month of getting it and is not attached at all any longer. He just bounces around the cockpit now.

Md_ Cobra,
We all love the Corsair, but up until late 1944, the markings were pretty simple (dull/drab) compared to the Army fighter aircraft in the Southwest Pacific and Solomon Islands. Late 44 and 1945 saw Navy units with more “lively” squadron markings - but then the entire aircraft was one color (Deep Sea Blue).
For the F4U-1A or -1D, my choice would be one with the 1943 Red boarders National Insignia. That’s about as colorful as they get.
Hope that stears you in some direction.

HELP!!! Still snow bound here in Seattle and as far as I can see....:Angry: we're a couple weeks away from a maiden which is good because I still have some nits to work out. I still need to set / reset my servos and throws but the big issue is with my ESC / Motor so I need some HELP!!. When I plug in the battery everything pulses normally and retracts work normally but I don't get the typical connection tones. My radio says I'm bound properly and the receiver flashes OK to accept bind BUT I get this tone every couple seconds and the motor pulses even with throttle at -0-. I have the motor disabled as a safety when the assigned switch is off then when I turn switch to on (enable) and try to run it up a little, the motor does nothing but I still get that beep every couple seconds. I've checked and rechecked the program settings in my radio for this bird and all looks good but I'm clueless Any ideas?:Thinking:

Note the “dullness” of the aircraft.

This photo shows the varying stark contrast in tones and weathering due to the conditions...

Are ALL plugs into the RX in the correct polarity? IE, black/brown to (-). Is your bind plug removed after binding?
