F4U Corsair "Big-Hog" 1810mm (71.3") Wingspan from Nexa - ARF - NXA1074-001
A legendary WWII warbird with unmistakable lines, the F4U Corsair earned its reputation as one of the most capable carrier-based fighters of its time. With its distinctive inverted gull wing and combat-proven legacy, the Corsair remains a favorite among modelers and full-scale aviators alike.
Now, Nexa captures the spirit of this iconic fighter in a highly detailed 1810mm (71.3") span ARF built for thrilling performance and standout scale presence. Compatible with 20–26cc gas engines, large glow engines, or high-powered electric systems, this Corsair gives you the freedom to power it your way.
The laser-cut balsa and plywood airframe is finished in an authentic three-tone WWII camouflage scheme, complete with the famous “Big Hog” tail art flown by ace John Thomas Blackburn, commanding officer of VF-17, the Jolly Rogers. A fiberglass cowl, scale pilot, external tanks, and underwing rockets elevate the realism, while pre-installed gear doors and a roomy interior make assembly and setup fast and frustration-free.
Whether you're a seasoned warbird pilot or looking to add a showstopper to your fleet, this Corsair delivers an exciting, rewarding experience with presence that turns heads wherever it flies.
