I bought a new plane today.  It's a Parkzone Corsair.  I bought the "Plug and Play" version - you have to supply your own radio, battery and charger.   It was a little windy, but the plane handled it well.  Seems to glide really well.  I didn't like the aileron throws - really sluggish, I felt like I couldn't turn the plane sometimes.  I was afraid to attempt a roll because there just wasn't enough authority.  The pushrods are connected to the control horns on the ailerons in the most outward hole, giving the least amount of throw.  I will move them to the bottom hole before I fly again.
