Parzone's F4U Corsair RTF

People that are enjoying their RC hobby after learning to fly now have a new scale-looking WWII fighter to consider. They're going to love this airplane. Probably one of the most remembered airplanes of WWII is the inverted gull-winged Corsair. This was the first fighter to break 400 mph and is a favorite of modelers everywhere. The Corsair is going to be a stablemate of the current best seller, the ParkZone T-28 Trojan. They have many common features such as the brushless 480 motor, Li-Po battery and Z-Foam construction. But it all adds up to having more fun.

ParkZone's product developer Eric Johnson talked to us about the Corsair and all the excitement created by this introduction. Take a look at F4U Corsair in our video preview.

Eric and ParkZone are on top of what RC park fliers are looking for and this plane is going to be a lot of fun. Watch for it to ship in the very near future—I believe the sky is going to be covered with these bent-wing birds.
