Frequently Asked Questions

• Is this main wing set compatible with my existing F4U Corsair airframe? — This is the genuine FMS factory main wing set designed specifically for the F4U Corsair V2 model aircraft. It will provide perfect compatibility with other V2 components and ensure optimal fit and performance. If you have an earlier version of the F4U Corsair, we recommend checking with FMS to confirm compatibility before purchasing.
• What should I do if I damage the wings during flight? — The modular design of this aircraft means you can replace just the wing set rather than the entire airframe, making this an economical repair option if your wings sustain damage.

However, we recommend some prior experience with RC aircraft flight before attempting to fly a scale fighter. If you're new to RC planes, consider starting with a trainer aircraft first, then progressing to the Corsair once you've developed fundamental flying skills.
• Can I use this wing set for aerobatic flying? — The F4U Corsair V2, equipped with this wing set, is capable of a range of flight manoeuvres from gentle, scale-like flying to more spirited aerobatic flight. The wing set is designed to handle the stresses of both flight styles, though we recommend building your skills gradually and always flying within the limits recommended by FMS.
