Need Help with JJD Corsair (1 Viewer)

[Horseman]

Hi Friends,
I need help with my JJD Corsair. I want to take it apart to store it in the original box. I need to remove the folding wings. They seem to be stuck. I do not want to break the model. Is there a way to get them to release? Any help will be appreciated.

Many Thanks,
Kevin

You have to be careful. Be sure to hold the wing part on the fuselage with your left hand and with little force, gently pull it out with your right hand. It should be easy next time around. The other method is to put a swab mineral oil (baby oil ok) on the sliding mechanism. Pull it in and out then gently pull out with a little force.

Thank you so much! That did the trick and now it is back safely in its box!

Great advice here, Noli Poli and Horseman! I’m going to be disassembling my JJD Corsair as well, so this was useful info.
