My weathering technique is to use a "craftsmart" Metallic Paint Pen silver.....make a dot and pull it back with my finger or que tip.....can tone it down with some grey chalk....no real way to mess it up. I think the trick is deciding when to stop....apply a couple dots and drag them back - walk away and figure out if you want to keep going. The perfect cowling does not look right with the rest of the skin replicating some sort of distress

Hi All,

Has anyone removed the factory covering and refinished this model?

Thanks Steve

Is saito fg60r a good choice for this model ?
and how about the landing gear for the 2025 model ?

Can someone measure the distance from prop
shaft to ground with the fuselage level (not sitting on the tail wheel)?
Trying to determine maximum size prop that could be installed (greater than the 22” listed) and still not worry about prop strike
Thank you

Hi all, I got a fair deal on a UMS 100-5 radial and plan to put it on a Black Horse Corsair. I saw a picture somewhere on FB or RCGroups of this combination and it seems awesome to me. What do you guys reckon, would these two go nice together? I had a Phoenix 20cc Corsair (1,8m) paired with a Saito FG33R3 and this flew beautiful once in the air, but to get it in the air proved hairy at times (grass field and not to much power). Hope to have a more potent combination now...
