Phoenix Model PMMA1605 F4U Corsair .46-.55 GP/EP ARF 58.5"
The F4U Corsair was a force to be reckoned with to the Japanese during WWII. With its gull wing design, impressive looks and power, the Corsair was one of the most recognizable WWII aircraft. Phoenix Model has recreated this outstanding airplane to suit size .46–.55 glow engines. It was designed with the latest laser-cut technology. Craftsmanship really shows up on the Corsair’s gull-shaped wing. This superb-looking F4U has enough scale detail and features to keep any warbird enthusiast happy.
