Fokker Dr 1

The Fokker Dr-1 entered service in 1917 with von Richtofen's "Flying Circus". While its service life was relatively brief it did achieve considerable success. The legendary "Red Baron", Manfred von Richtofen was flying a Dr-1 when he was finally shot down, whether by the Camel of Capt. Roy Brown or by an obscure Australian anti-aircraft gunner remains a mystery. There is no mystery however, to the nimble flight characteristics of the Rough and Ready Aviation Fokker Dr-1

Unique multi-layer Fuselage construction is light, stiff and has better resistance to twisting than "X" or carbon braced fuselages.
Fuselage design insures proper component placement and allows partial concealment of the receiver, servos and battery and completely conceals the wiring and ESC. No wires hanging loose!
The Fuselage is pre-assembled in factory jigs to ensure accuracy.
Custom aluminum motor mount and hardware.
Custom formed aluminum landing gear and axle assembly for strength and good ground handling. No flimsy gear here. Plywood mounts and large, light weight wheels are included.
Construction is from 6mm Depron with 3mm tail surfaces.
All Depron parts are machine cut and "keyed" for easy, accurate assembly.
Wings are machine to accept the supplied 1/8" carbon tube spars, just CA the spars in place.
The wings have servo pockets machined for correct servo placement.
Laser cut plywood control horns are included.
Pushrods with "Z' bends and Micro "EZ" connectors are included.
Ultra strong, easy to install Mylar hinges.
All necessary hardware to compete the airframe is included.
And best of all, super quick and easy assembly. Your Rough & Ready Aviation Fokker Dr 1 can be ready to fly in less than a day!
