Albatros D.III EP 40" ARF
The Albatros D.III was a single-seat biplane used by the Imperial German Army Air Service and the Austro-Hungarian Air Service during the First World War. It was heavily armed with twin synchronized, forward-firing 7.92 mm LMG 08/15 machine guns and powered by a 180 hp Mercedes 6-cylinder inline, water-cooled engine (unusual for the era). Its streamlined radiator, mounted on the top wing, was offset slightly to starboard so that combat damage would not result in scalding water being released over the pilot.
The prototype D.III first flew in August 1916 and was quickly recognized for its outstanding maneuverability and rate of climb. Like most fighters, the D.III was prone to spinning. However, its recovery was straightforward, and German aces including Manfred von Richthofen, Ernst Udet, Erich Löwenhardt, Kurt Wolff, and Karl Emil Schäfer credited the D.III as being both pleasant and easy to fly.
The R/C Albatros is based on the full scale D.III and we tried to add as many details as we could, such as the dummy water cooling engine (assembled with 91 parts), wing wires, wing mounted scale radiator and much more. It is designed to be an R/C scale flying model, not a display model.
We had to balance scale appearance and R/C performance which was not an easy job. We also decided to add some functions which were not on the full-scale Albatros, like the shock-absorbing landing gear and taill skid, to help with any not-so-perfect landings. There are lots of carbon fiber material used in the light weight contruction.
Features:
Scale dummy engine, wing-mounted radiator and machine guns.
Shock-absorbing, spring-loaded landing gear and tail skid.
True-to-scale, large-sized spinner.
Completely pre-covered & pre-trimmed, with all control surfaces pre-hinged and all mounting openings pre-drilled/pre-cut.
Left and right wings have pre-attached interplane struts, pre-installed guy wires, and wing joiner rods.
Each aileron is separately operated by its own, in-wing servo.
The battery hatch is strongly secured by a rare-earth magnet.
All required control horns and self-threading and machine-type screws are included.
