Stu's Comments:
CM Pro. Kit from China Models distributed in the UK  by J.Perkins Distributions. Powered by an ASP .91 Engine with a Just Engines custom made in-cowl silencer (quite) & South Herts Models Intelligent Glow Switch, this unit really is the dogs cahoonas!

8 Servos:- x2 flaps, x2 ailerons, x1 retracts, std 3. Driven by X2 1500NmH with parallel connection, each with isolation switches for charging jacks. see article by Red Scholefield regarding parallel battery operation.

First Flight:

The large 75.5" wing affords ample lift of the all up weight of 12lb. - including 425g nose lead & full 16oz fuel tank.

The .91 turning a 16x6 gave plenty of pull and acceleration for take off and subsequent aerobatic flight performance: at 1/4 throttle the performance is very scale like. After 12 minutes dropped the wheels and 30% flaps given without event, confident, dropped to full flaps for a smooth landing and mandatory safety checks.

If you like Corsairs then this kit is definitely for you.

NB. The Fibreglass Fuselage comes ready painted (matt) & fuel proofed to 5% Nitro. If using fuel higher than this (above flight used Glow Fuel at 10% Nitro) it would be prudent to apply additional proofer, I used flair spectrum matt ok.
