I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Image Comments mhempel 18-May-07 09:22 I started this corsair last December and then put it away for a while. This is the first model I've built with action pieces and the tail wheel assembly was the first I added. I've had a hard time figuring out how to attach the fixture that the plans call mhempel 18-May-07 09:23 for which locks the wheel when in the raised, and lowered, positions.... help from anyone who has built this model would be greatly appreciated. mattolson 18-May-07 11:08 I too started this mid last year and decided to practice on the Spitfire first. I didn't like the tailwheel mechanism either and I decided to go with a locking pin going thru the fuselage. Didn't work out all the details yet though. The main landing gear mechanism works well, just be prepared for a patient tweaking and fitting session, same for the folding wings. Hope to see pics of your progress! mhempel 18-May-07 14:42 Yeah, I was thinking about trying something similar, but just haven't been able to figure it out yet. I've got just about everything else completed, the landing gear are working, they were a pain, and I've got all of the moveable surfaces working, but I decided not to build with folding wings though.
