A one stop shop for your Air Piracy Needs circa 1944. Take it to Korea, the Futbol War, or pretend to be Lynn Garison for all I care, but you better fly her right. Or she'll kill you faster than any harsh words I can give.
This premade group of videos includes useful information for the pilots to be of the DCS Mag3 F4U-1D. Keep in mind that these videos aren't specific to the airframe, but they're a good place to start.
All fame should go to those that saved this footage from the dumpsters. Or whoever made the video in question. My lowly self only cared to put it all in one easy to find receptacle.
Oh, some secondary information.
-Physical Manuals-
F4U-1D (and other assorted Corsairs) Manual, 90~ pages. Consider printing it for badass points. Dip it in Whiskey for even more.

For those seeking reliable physical manuals in the US then Periscope Films offers an F4U manual (and MANY others) for sale but it is the B manual for -4s, and doesn't cover the F4U-1D. It still contains useful information nonetheless.

-Air Combat Tips in Book Form-
A quick google search can get you to a link for Shaw's Air Combat and Maneuvering off of Reddit, but I warn you it is dryer than sandpaper left in an oven in a dust storm.
Art of the Kill, of Falcon Gold fame, can be found via an equally easy google search for it with pdf at the end of the search. A much more palatable read than Shaw's book, but much less technical. It has a video that goes with it and it will be included on the playlist.
These manuals are still very relevant to air combat in your Corsair, but the best advice I can really give you will always be to have your Three P's answered. Have the Pilotage needed, to carry through with a Plan, and always with a Pal.
Share and enjoy.
