Goodyear F2G-1 "Super Corsair"

Good Evening Comrades!

My actually 1/72 project is the "SuperCorsair" by SPECIAL HOBBY. Itīs a shortrun. Itīs a nice Kit with resin, flat tires and photoetching parts but the Propeller is inaccurate and the motor is not the right.
Propeller: not problem -> I have take the hamilton standard from quickboost for P-47 Thunderbolt.

BUT THE ENGINE: In the Kit a normal Pratt & Whitney R-2800 with 2 * 9 cylinders. But you need a 4*7 cylinder P & W R-4360.

Please Help: I need pics, drawings from this engine

Horrido
Andreas

Hallo Wojtek!

If you take "In detail and scale" then the model is 1 mm to long; wingspan ok.
If you compares with "Monografie Lotnicze" are both ok.
But I believe that I become problems with the flaps for the rear-tire. I think they are not ok.
