HobbyZone just released the new F4U Corsair for beginner pilots. The Corsair comes with SAFE technology. It's just like the Apprentice except it's a low wing plane.
I maiden it earlier. This plane with SAFE technology rocks. I tested it out with all three mode (Beginners, Intermediate, Advance). I also tested with panic button. It handles extremely well.
The assemble time is very fast. It took me about 10 minutes to complete. I use the DX9. For me, I just copy my Apprentice profile, rename to the Corsair and bind it. All settings are identical.
I think for student who is planning to get a second plane. This is a good plane to get. However, for others who never fly before, I will think Apprentice (or a high wing) is still a better choice.
Here is the maiden flight video I took.

Very nice, Oscar!
