Vought F4U Corsair v1.0
328k SpiritusRaptor
7.1 years ago
Credit to Weaverfish for his gunsight which I have adapted with a leading sight indicator.
AG1 to fold wings.
AG2 to close canopy.
AG3 to drop fuel tank.
AG4 to drop bombs.
AG5 to fire rockets.
AG7 for chute (as arrestor hook doesn't really work).
VTOL up for flaps, plus TRIM for trim.
Wheel chocks are provided if starting on a carrier to stop it rolling off the back.
For carrier landings:
- Throttle around 20%, gear down and flaps full.
- Approach carrier at around 100 ft / 100 mph.
- Cut power at the last moment.
- For landing on USS Tiny use the chute to slow down.
A few minor fixes on this version:

can you make an updated one with the new cockpit pieces please because I think that would be very cool
the aceleration is not realistic but i still love this airplane
edit: the trim and flaps are inverted and i dont know how to fix it
When decelerating rapidly, the propeller will be damaged, but its maneuverability and speed are among the best.
When will you stop playing simpleplanes if you ever do (just wondering idk y)@SpiritusRaptor
I downloaded this and changed it up a bit by making it red and black and now it looks very awesome 👍
Will you be returning for SP 1.8? @SpiritusRaptor
Thanks!
@sheepsblood
I believe this is the best Vought F4U Corsair on the site so far. Everything works magnificently and it flies just as perfect.
Added the new arresting hook to it, it’s pure awesome now! 👏
Hi @SpiritusRaptor! I would like to know if you can make a mobile version of this plane but keeping the cockpit and features. Thanks!
@Maxwell1 Thanks

Can I use this and add and arrestor cable @SpiritusRaptor
@Dinoairplanes They are from fuselage parts and small rotators with wings nudged into them...
