FT Master Series Corsair

The FT Corsair marks an exciting new chapter in Flite Test scratch-built aircraft. Developed using advanced “mold-together” techniques pioneered by John Overstreet, this design moves beyond traditional fold-together construction to deliver stunning scale detail and exceptional flight performance. By peeling the paper and carefully shaping the foam, the Corsair achieves smooth, flowing curves in both the fuselage and airfoil—resulting in an aircraft that truly flies as good as it looks.

These new building techniques may feel different if you’ve built Flite Test models before, but they’re easy to learn and are designed to carry forward into future Flite Test aircraft. At the same time, many familiar Flite Test methods are still used, creating a build that feels fresh while remaining approachable and rewarding.

In the air, the FT Corsair offers a wide speed and performance envelope, making it suitable for a broad range of pilots. Set up mildly, it’s a forgiving and confidence-building flyer for beginners and intermediate pilots. Power it up with a 4-cell battery, and even advanced pilots will find an exciting, capable warbird that delivers impressive performance.

With its iconic looks, innovative construction, and versatile flight characteristics, the FT Corsair is a must-build for pilots looking to experience the future of Flite Test design.
