AN ALL-WOOD ARF THAT WILL MAKE YOU AN "ACE".
The Fokker DR-1 will be forever tied to the famous Rittmeister Baron Manfred von Richthofen...the Red Baron. The leader of the Flying Circus had 80 confirmed victories, to make him the most successful pilot in World War I! This prebuilt R/C park flyer version takes advantage of breakthroughs in electric power for long flight times — and, like its inspiration, dogfight-winning maneuverability.
- Performs realistic WWI fighter aerobatics — spins, rolls, loops, Immelmanns and more.
- Perfectly suited for flying at a local field or nearby park.
- Spanning under 30”, the Fokker DR-1 can stay in one piece for transport in most vehicles.
Built much like larger models, the EP Fokker DR-1's airframe is constructed of balsa and plywood materials. Its lightweight design and attention to detail stand this model apart from the rest.

An outrunner brushless motor gives this model a great power-to-weight ratio and long flight times. The ElectriFly RimFire 28-30-950 motor (GPMG4560)
was found to be ideal for the Fokker DR-1.
|
The prebuilt main structures are covered in high-quality film. Scale-shaped landing gear with an airfoiled center section, and lightweight scale wheels are included.
|
|
To further speed and simplify assembly, the Fokker DR-1's cabanes and interplane struts come factory finished — ready for easy installation and proper alignment.
|
A complete package of high-quality hardware that's specifically designed for light weight and precise control response is included.
|
|
A vacuum-formed replica radial engine, cowl, along with hand-crafted machine guns and other details enhance the Fokker DR-1's already impressive appearance.

“The Fokker DR-1 triplane is probably the most recognized WWI airplane of all time. Now you can be “recognized” at your local flying site when you show up with our EP Fokker DR-1 ARF. Few would want to build this model from a balsa kit, but with this ARF version, you can be in the air in only 4-6 hours, not 4-6 weeks!”
