The attention to scale details in this plane is amazing, from its historically representative 3-color trim scheme to the pilot figure inside the cockpit. The fixed landing gear and steerable tail wheel allow for smooth takeoffs and landings. ParkZone’s PNP version of the Corsair features a 480 Brushless outrunner motor for exceptional performance. It’s successful reputation and unique flying characteristics has earned the F4U Corsair its place in American Military history! Designed as a carrier based fighter, it was also the first Naval aircraft to have landing gear retract flush into the wing for improved aerodynamics, and it was the first fighter to exceed speeds of 400 mph. Referred to as “whistling death” by the Japanese in World War II, and the “Sweetheart of Okinawa” by American troops, the inverted gull wing allowed for the huge propeller to clear the deck with its short, stout landing gear.
The F4U Corsair, made famous for its ability to outclimb, outrun, or outfight any enemy in it’s day, is an exciting addition to the ParkZone family. Along with the North American P-51, the Corsair is arguably the most popular fighter plane of World War II. ParkZone is proud to present another legend in our lineup of Warbirds.
