F4U Corsair Kit Card

The Vought F4U Corsair was a US built fighter-bomber that served during World War 2 and the Korean War, designed primarily as a carrier-based aircraft. Not only used by the US Navy and Marines, but thousands of units battled in the skies of Western Europe with the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm. The aeroplane had characteristic inverted gull wings similar to the German JU-87 Stuka which were required for lowering the landing gear, to accommodate the larger engine and propellor.

I have been wanting to make a Corsair kit for years, but could never come up with a simple and satisfying method for the inverted gull wings that I was happy with, until now!

===================

If the fit is too tight, I suggest slowing the print down a little, I know I know.
You can make it EVEN TIGHTER by increasing the Z-scale by 15%.

Print at 0.2mm layer height, there really is no benefit from printing at a higher resolution and it could affect the fit.

Makes greatly appreciated, always glad to see them! Happy Printing!
