BALSA USA KIT No 417 FOKKER E.III EINDECKER 90 

The actual aircraft responsible for the Fokker Scourge! Our model is accurate in outline, but has been modernized. Sorry guys, we cheated, there is no wing warping, the model has ailerons and a real airfoil is included at no extra charge! Now the preferred mount of Oswald Boelcke, Max Immelmann and many of the First World War's early German Aces can be yours.

The wing construction uses a unique 'egg crate" type of assembly. Here the ribs lock onto a full length die-cut shear length web for perfect alignment. The main spars are pre-slotted and this shear web/rib assembly locks into these slots top and bottom. This greatly increases the strength and simplicity of the wing construction without any weight penalty.

The fuselage features die-cut fuselage sides and doubles for ease of construction. The fuselage is not a difficult to build "stick box'.

The Eindecker is very easy to build and you won't spend hours rigging it up at the flying field.

Just plug in the aileron servos, bolt on the wing and you are ready to go flying. The flying qualities of the Eindecker are smooth and easy. 

Lazy aerobatics are this Fokker's forte. Practice some Immelmanns in the aircraft that invented them! Savour the flavour and fun of this very early aero plane the easy way!
