We are excited about the this new WW I fighter to go along with the Hangar 9 Sopwith Camel we reviewed a while back. the Fokker D-VII is a true superstar and was perhaps the best fighter to come out of WW I. The new Hangar 9 ARF promises to be a winner! Watch for a review in MAN coming soon!
Key Features
Scale pilot, dummy engine and guns included
Covered with accurate German Lozenge camouflage
Scale wheels included
High-quality laser-cut balsa and plywood construction
Fiberglass cowl simulated stamped metal fuselage sides
Fly it the way you want it—glow or electric
Hangar 9’s almost-ready-to-fly version of the Fokker D.VII is an accurate 60-size reproduction of Germany’s famed fighter. It is the second WWI fighter in the Hangar 9 warbird line. Constructed of laser-cut balsa, it also has painted fiberglass parts and accurate scale Lozenge camouflage covering on the bottom of the wing and tail surfaces to give it an authentic look. The dummy engine is a 6 cylinder Mercedes engine with exhaust stack and simulated rocker arms.
The Fokker D.VII is designed to accommodate a variety of 2- or 4-stroke glow engines, as well as, electric power, and includes all the mounting hardware needed. Making this aircraft ready for electric power is as easy as mounting a motor on the included mount, charging and flying.
