Welcome cp! If there is anything we can do to help out, just post up!

Welcome to the forum dude

 

[Graham Lawrie]

Welcome tothe forum most of us have found our way here through the videos of Tonys builds

 

[corsair_pilot]

Thanks lads been a massive help so far, and has helped, me keep what little hair I have left!
I can see you guys being a great suport!

 

[Tony]

That is what we are here for and the reason I created this forum. I was tired of being bashed when I was a new pilot and wanted a place for those that are just getting started that are all going to ask the same questions over and over again. Here, that is not a problem. Some other forums, they will bash you until there is no tomorrow. I wanted RCH to put a stop to that.

Ya know...I have to say the same thing that Tony just said. I was very tired of getting bashed and/or ignored because I was the "new" guy and was there asking questions and more or less harassing them with my ignorance. I've been a member of rchelp.com for nearly a year now and I have never been bashed nor ignored...even when I ask the same question two or more times....I always get an answer. These guys at RCH are amazing with their vast knowledge.

corsair_pilot...you stick around this place and keep asking all the questions that you can think of...these guys will get you the answers. No doubt!

Mountain dew dude, I can see me picking your brains when I want to do a scratch built corsair!

corsair_pilot; Good luck with your maiden flight & Welcome to the site! Dave

 

[Derek]

I certainly don't know as much as many other RCH members and staff, but I'll surely do what I can to help. I just love scrath building. It's rewarding.

 

[corsair_pilot]

Thanks guys!!
Dave, I guess I didn't technically maiden the heli this arvo, as the skids never left the ground... although it did bounce a bit... hmmm oh well... it is back to the drawing board, and wait for new parts to arrive etc
Derek, love the idea of scratch build, currently working on making my own little 4axis CNC router so that I can do some of my own building... I will be making stuff out of foam primarily, but i should then be able to do up wing spars and ribs etc to make my hopefully rather large corsair.... before moving onto making a scaled down ultralight version of one

Hmmm.... trying to put up a picture but it's not letting me do it... i've checked and the pixles are the right, and the size is ok too

 

[Tony]

If you like scratch building, click on the store and download the RCH Trainer. It's a great airplane to play around with. I'm currently working on a new 3D plane that should be a lot of fun and can be tossed in the car to fly when ever you get a chance. Should have an initial release after I fine tune the plans a bit.

 

[corsair_pilot]

I did just have a look at that.
I'm keen to give it a go, as I said, one of my aims is to build an ultralight corsair that I can fly around in. that's partly why i got into rc flying, cos then I can make proto types and see the flying characteristics in a much safer environment.....
Don't mind crashing a foam model etc, but when i'm in the model, that's a different story....
Any reason why I can't get my pic to upload?

 

[Tony]

Im not sure why you cant upload the pic. We may have the setting where you cant upload due to spammers. I will look into it tonight when I get to work.

WELCOME TO THE RC-HELP FAMILY..... ENJOY YOUR STAY!!!! glad to have you join up corsair i too love the corsair and can't wait till i can get a large corsair kit to build i am working on a redtail p-51d mustang with 65" span ARF kit from nitroplanes but i have modified alot of it so far..

 

[corsair_pilot]

hey Wolfman,
I love the corsair, it's my fave warbird!! Something majestic about it, but then i love the planes that were a bit different. Things like the P-38, the twin boomed Mustang, mosquito, me262's RF Phantom II I could go on hahaha
next plane I think will be a corsair, and will eventually try and scratch build a rather large one
