Eduard 1:72 Fokker Dr.I Triplane is an injection-molded plastic kit of the legendary German fighter triplane of the First World War, linked with the name of Manfred von Richthofen.
Responsibility details are not available.
An injection-molded plastic kit of the famous German fighter triplane Fokker Dr.I in 1:72 scale from the Czech manufacturer Eduard. Eduard offers this type in several editions and the equipment differs according to the particular edition (photo-etched parts, painting masks, the number of decal schemes) — so check the contents against the packaging. Small parts and fine surface detail are typical of Eduard.
The Fokker Dr.I was a German single-seat fighter triplane deployed in the closing stage of the First World War. The arrangement with three lifting surfaces gave the aircraft an excellent rate of climb and agility in a turning fight. It was powered by a rotary engine. The type is inseparably linked with the most successful fighter ace of the war, Manfred von Richthofen, nicknamed the Red Baron, and with his characteristic red finish.
On a triplane the rigging is the key — stretch the bracing and the wires between the wings from thin thread, and it will raise the realism markedly. Pay attention to imitating wood on the propeller (a base plus glaze coats) and to reproducing doped fabric on the fuselage and the flying surfaces. Glue the plastic parts with a thin modeling cement, apply a primer before painting and use an airbrush for even coverage. Proceed carefully with the thin struts.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
