..and they were made in times, where Corsairs FMs where still quite optimistic.
And maybe they should be some challenge indeed - if you learn how to start from a CVE, then you will do it from a CV with a smile.
However, further tips for take of with F4U from CVE:
1. Use tailwheel lock so you don't have to use much rudder in the beginning of the acceleration
2. Push stick forward to early lift the tail (keep calm and sensilbe, when it happens)
3. Open flaps shortly before leaving the deck and maybe open them to landing config (ground lift effect will happen over the water, at the deck the flaps only slow you down)
4. Its normal that you sink lower after leaving the deck, so don't over-react trying to pulling too high - at that point you need speed more than height (paradox, I know)
5. Close radiators and cockpit and set mixture to 120% - every little bit can help!
