Prebuilt of balsa, ply and aluminum, the center wing section is a masterpiece of ease and engineering.

wing construction cutaway
flaps & ailerons
  • The Corsair¡¯s trademark ¡°gull¡± shape is reproduced at the factory, eliminating hours of building work.

  • Reinforced mounts for Robart¢ç retractable landing gear are built into the inner wing panel. That way, the main gear remain in place when outer panels are moved, and provide an easy way to ¡°walk¡± the fuselage to and from the field.

  • The prehinged flaps on the center section and outer panel are linked with a phenolic tab. Once linked, the flaps in both panels work as one surface and require only one servo in each wing half.

  • The flaps, ailerons and elevators are prehinged to reduce build time.
