The Fokker Dr.1 was a triplane fighter aircraft used in World War I. Built by the Fokker aircraft works in Schwerin. The aircraft became famous thanks to Manfred von Richthofen, the most famous fighter pilot of the First World War. Known primarily as the Red Baron. Because of the red color of his plane.
The Fokker Dr.1 was very manoeuvrable because of the large threestorey wings, but also relatively slow. The drive consisted of a 9 cylinder radial engine.
The RC Fokker Dr.1 is based very closely on the original. The huge aircraft is reproduced in great detail and also has a real 9cylinder radial engine. Of course, the RC plane is red and thus corresponds to the appearance of the Fokker Dr. 1 of the Red Baron.
And of course he also sits in the cockpit as a pilot figure. The special thing about it: The Red Baron can move the yoke and even wave from the cockpit with one hand.
This is also well received by the spectators of the air show. The RC Fokker Dr.1 flies several laps over the airfield and also makes two low flights. The flight image is as detailed as the original. However, the landing is a bit difficult because of the cross wind. The aircraft tilts slightly to one side when touching down, but the pilot can quickly bring it under control.
