With Dawn Patrol Rendezvous 2005 looming ahead. I'm finally going on my 1/4 scale WW1 Siemens Schuckeart D1. As the real plane was a copy of the French Nieuport 11, mine is being modified from Scratch-A-Plane Nieuport 17 plans (close enough for this project).


Here's a few pics of the real thing, what the camo scheme, will be, and a few early construction pics.

If you're interested, more can be viewed at [link=http://www.bealmear.com/dawn_patrol/siemens_schuckart.htm]RCDP Siemens Schuckert Build.[/link]

Thanks for taking a look!

Thanks Cliff!

A few more shots of last nights work.

Tail feathers hinged and temp fitted to fuse. Getting ready to run the lines for the pull-pull.

Modified rudder shape shown over Nie17 plans.
