F4U Corsair (Mobile Friendly)

Auto Credit Based on Neruneten21's [CLOSED] Mobile Friendly Challenge

An entry for Neruneten21's Mobile Friendly Challenge.
The first actual replica i ever made, sorry if it doesn't look good enough. This could be my only entry, or maybe...i might make some more... ;)
Take note, if you turn on the ground too hard/too fast, the main gears kinda....bend...and idk how how to fix that, so yeah. And the wing flex when pitching down the aircraft makes the wings look weird, somehow. Also, despite how i made it quickly and fairly simple, it actually flies well without me having to check the CoM & CoL first :P
If this gets chosen, or...any other entries i might make, i can finally die peacefully knowing my creation made it into a challenge :')
Turns out making a low part replica isn't really hard after all. Well, if it isn't really complex.

Only 47 parts?! Wow :0

Controls & Activation Groups:
VTOL: Flaps
AG1: Deploy Arresting Hook
AG2: Fold Wings
AG3: Jettison Fuel Tanks

And uhh, should i add real information about the aircraft or should i not? I might just put a link to the wikipedia of this thing :v
Anyways, enjoy!

    Note

    I really admired this plane, even though the F4U is a simple design. I loved the wing flex and the folding wings, along with the drop tanks, that is the reason why it got 15 for creativity. Overall very good plane.

    Remember, you can have more than 1 entry, however, there is a limit of 5 entries.
    Thank you for participating
