Microaces love of aviation history ensures that the aircraft we reproduce as kits look fantastic on static display as well as in the air.
The Microaces Albatros D.V kit replicates one of the most memorable German fighters of WWI. Manufactured by Albatros Flugzeugwerke in 1917, the D.V was the last of the line of the 'D' series aircraft with the D.Va continuing in service until the end of the war.
The livery of this particular Albatros D.V is that of Paul Bäumer, nicknamed the 'Iron Eagle' whose final tally of 43 victories, ranked him 9th among German aces. He was also one of only a handful of WWI pilots whose lives were saved by parachute deployment during the conflict.
Our love of aviation history ensures that the aircraft we choose to reproduce as kits not only look fantastic on static display and in the air, but they also carry a depth of history that can be explored. The Royal Aircraft Factory SE5a was an all round fighter that was much admired by those that flew it. And, due to its performance at altitude, was a worthy adversary of the Fokker DVII when it reached the front in 1918.
This kit is Microaces first in 1/20th scale. The increase from our usual 1/24th has enabled us to re-create the beautiful oval cigar shape of the Albatros fuselage as well as enhance the details and structures to be even more like the full scale aircraft, without compromising on scale performance in the air.
And a swathe of high resolution 3D printing, to reproduce engine parts and weaponry, elevates this kit to an even higher level of scale than you have been used to with Microaces models.
Tyvek
The contours of the sleek fuselage are made possible with the use of Tyvek. More often used in packaging and construction, Tyvek is an extremely strong paper like material made from plastic fibres, making it light weight, printable, chemically resistant so; fantastic for a kit making application.
Brushless
Another leap forward, that is embraced by this kit, is the use of a Brushless Motor and supporting electronics. Although still operating on the convenience and safety of a 1 cell, 3.7v Lipo battery, the setup provides the smooth scale power required for a larger model.
History in the Making
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:
The Microaces AIO 5CH micro receiver (NOT INCLUDED)is available with the following protocols. If unsure, check your transmitter instruction manual to find out which protocol(s) it uses. Then select the compatible receiver protocol below to view the appropriate receiver to add to your order.
