German twin seat fighter Floatplane
The Microaces Hansa-Brandenburg W12 kit replicates one of the most successful German naval float planes of WWI. Not only is the unusual configuration of the aircraft tail, the floats and strut-work accurately modeled, but we've gone to great lengths to include intricate details that make this kit a worthy static display model as well as an excellent scale radio controlled flyer. Making History
The particular aircraft livery that adorns this W.12 model was flown by Friedrich Christiansen, a 13 victory seaplane ace. Christiansen went on to become commander of the Wehrrmacht in the Netherlands in WWII.
The W.12 was very sparsely rigged with very few flying wires, instead relying on its structure and A-frame strut configuration. This makes the Microaces kit an ideal choice for those that enjoy an involved and comprehensive build but aren't keen on all that string! This Microaces kit is now supplied 'as standard' with the most suitable Microaces motor/gearbox and propeller combination for the model.
Devil in the Detail!
The Mercedes D.III 6 cylinder engine is just one of the detail features of this kit.
The kit comes with the option to build integrated 'hidden' wheels into the floats so the aircraft can be flown off water or the smooth surface of a sports hall.
We have also created a Static Display Pack of beaching dollies and a support trestle set. It closely replicates the hardware used to move and store the real aircraft. This is available as an optional extra. (Not Included)
So to complete the kit for radio controlled flight, all you need is an All In One (AIO) Receiver that's compatible with your transmitter. Selecting the right receiver to complete your kit:
