Thanks a lot, seems that Mr. Torrance uses allmost the original values as the real one. Very interesting from the modelling side. Thanks again. Aessandro.

Hi to everybody, my name is Alessandro, I' m writing from Italy I' m a modeller since long time actually I'm 45 and i made several models in the past, since I turn over also to static models doing competitions.Now with the intent to introduce my little son in to fantastic modelworld I' ve restart again the dinamic modelism. My favorite planes are: for the ww1 the fokker dr1 of course, for ww2 F190 A8 contemporary F 16 and many others. Searching information about triplane i found this thread, and i want to say that job of all of you is great, fantastic, really really nice well done. Also I was long time a go building a fokker Dr1 very similar to the real one, but mine is not so big as yours. as i said is an old project that i want to restart again. Today technology gives to us a lot of choise about materials, tools, glues,covering tissue an so on, anyway my dr1 is 1/5 scale, for the time that was started was big, but comparing what yours today is like a moskitos. So far getting back on the project I decide to keep this size first off all because i had allmost finish all 3 wings and second i'll power the model with electric motor, this wy that the electric motor gives a lot of power output, is light and small and allows me to use a big prop 21" that for the1/5 scale keeps proportions correct. I hope to post some picture to, one day soon I'll finish to fix my workshop and restarting the recostruction again,working time permitting, I'm cargo pilot and often out of home. For the 1/3 scale there is an interesting video about a real rotative 1/3 scale engine, fantastic , a real dream if you are interest chek it, this is the link http://modelrotaryflyer.tripod.com/ I have just one question to ask : The GTM model kit wich angle of incidence has adopted for the bottom, mid and upper wing of the DR1? Thanks. Best regards to all and happy landings Alessandro
