I have this kit and I will replace all plasitic parts with 3d printed parts I design in cad. I will design details for it that arent included.

There are fumes in Krylon spray paint as well as the dope.

Well done Dad! Very nice job!

Considering the inferior kit you had, you did a great job, my friend.

Horrible model pilot, motor, fuselage looks horrible

I was working on this model around 1986 when the Challenger disaster happened. I still have it but never completed it.

I used to build airplane models to hang from the ceiling of my room. The Corsair is without a doubt, one of the most beautiful and sexy airplanes ever built.

say hi to your son , this is from Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦

Nice job! You built the f4u-4 version, which is the Korea war version, and which my Uncle flew off of a carrier. Would you believer he have me his flight manual! Love that plane. 🙂

Nicely done!

I USED DOPE ON A LOT OF PLANES,A FEW 3 times the size of this,also used dope on my Dads J3 When we repaired the Irish Linnen Fabric on the tail and wing surfaces! Still going at 77 !

That was one happy kid! Good job, dad! 👍

Maybe next time consider 1/32 sheeting. It works best when u replace the 1/16 stringers with 8th x 16th and convex them a bit with water and some heat so the sheeting doesn't concave between the formers.

The laser cut stuff looks like a serious improvement over the old die crushed. I'm building a crushed 36" 172 from about 82' right now😂 so basically 80% scratch, u know how it is. Great job man

I thought about added something like this to my 1/160 train set. Could be private collection. Could put on the farm as around here farmer had military vehicle collection.

Which Guillows kits are the biggest challenge to "unbox" ?

There's just something about balsa. :)

Nice review Guy! I've built a few Guillows kits and all were a joy. They fly pretty well too both as RC and control line.

Guess it’s alright but do you not know how to use small fingernail files to shake add detail to motor sanding down prop gun adding bolt heads I guess I’m just so anal for perfection other just settle for get by, the pilot for instance. Sucks come it down for detail, I dunno looks thrown together if ask me I dunno had to rip apart another mans treasure

I always wanted to build a big model. But yours is awesome.

I know it's 6 years ago but if you still have it I would like to see it. Thank you

its not a MOTOR!!!! it is an engine

thumbs up!

Looks good! Looks real, real good!

Wow! Thanks for your video! I like large-scale, but I don't have the room. My wife was against hanging a plane from the ceiling. I build 1/144 scale.

letadlo je to moc pěkné,ale po modelářské stránce není čistě provedené,to ale nic nemění na faktu k radosti malého syna😊

I've got a lot of great memories building and flying these kits with my Dad when I was the same age. These kits are eternal. (unless you catch a bad gust of wind lol)

This is the best stick and tissue build I have seen--wow! F4U is one of my favorite planes and your build is superb Sir! Well Done! Cheers JP

You just rambled on & on…. Just stick to the topics shown on the video. Regards to covering, you did a great job & the clear Krylon seems to dive most shrinking & wrinkle problems. Your model turned out great. There’s a special technique on the use of Guillow’s decals. Just keep them soaking in water until they’re literally floating off the carrier paper. Good show.

Thanks for posting. Brings back memories. The first Tamiya / military kit I built. Late 70s - early 80s? Led to many other builds. Still sits on my shelf with the others.

Good build, you put a lot effort into this project, for what I presume is strictly for static display purposes only, since there didn’t seem to be any indication otherwise. I thought it might be good to recommend that you try, on future builds, using Monokote or Mylar that may be tightened with the application of heat and then leaves a nice smooth waterproof surface to paint, or, in the event it is the correct final color, it may be left alone. It may save you substantial time, not to mention that it also may be much lighter than many coats of paint and more durable as well. When your children are older, you may wish to convert these airplanes for RC flight. Thank you for sharing this video! Please have an excellent and awesome day! ☀️✨✈️

The only chance of survival of this hobby is if for his next Birthday you buy a kit and build it with him.

Any other builds of this kit where the plane turns out looking good?

Personally, I would cover the whole airframe and wings with the thinnest balsa sheet available on the market.

Another Canuck glue bomber !

Beau modèle!

I built stick and tissue models as a kid, then what to my surprise, my daughter got me this very model (now 58) I have completely taken over the dining room table, lol. I came here looking for tips on covering, Wet vs dry. I did the tail (Dry) and now I am nervous to do the rest.

I remember the smell of that modeling dope

It's amazing, I'm building an A6M but this one shoot down 20 in one day

Je suis Francias aussi! Tres Tres bien

Very nice work Guy - your little guy will treasure this model forever!

thats one cool airplane. checkout my video of my trixter beam build. getting ready to start a bellanca cruisemaster!

The engine firewalls and such out of that small "plastic sheet" are vinyl. Older production kits of that same were originally a thin grade plywood.

If you want model paints go to hobby lobby they have every paint you need for model cars they have Tamiya and model master and a few other brands of modeling paints. But don't use modeling paints guys on any foam rc planes but looks like it would look good to do tissue and paint it instead of the see through ultra lite uktracote or monokote if you make this a rc plane I like the paint better I'm gonna do same thing instead of the monokote wrap would look way better with a airbrush

I literally just got done building this plane I saved the kit wood and built it from scratch it's an amazing rc flying plane I love it flies amazing and nice and straight and level just make sure everything stays square and sand the wood smooth before you wrap it and make sure it's straight take your time to sand and square everything up

Thanks for the unboxing, this looks like a great kit!

Well done sir beautiful airplane sure you’re a boys proud to this day

Built this one years ago , it looked good but it had mistakes , but to build it again I would fill all sections with Wall insulation foam board sand it then Pva the tissue , the Guillows Kits were for their time but modern day you need a diffrent approach..good vid.
