The German Fokker D.VII is frequently cited as one of the best fighter aircraft of the First World War. But its story of inception is what makes it a supremely interesting subject. During the latter half of 1917, the Allies had regained air superiority over the Western Front with the S.E. 5 and the SPAD fighters. To counter this, the German government invited aircraft manufacturers to submit prototype single-seat fighter designs for evaluation in Berlin in January 1918. The design with the best overall performance would be awarded a production contract. The Fokker D VII was the winner, earning an initial contract for 400 units. The Fokker D.VII was easy to maneuver, strong and agile and as a result was highly respectable by the enemy. The D.VII could "hang on its propeller" and attack upwards while other aircraft would stall and fly away. The performance of the Fokker D.VII was superior to any other aircraft used by the triumphant power. As a result, Germany had to surrender all the airplanes after the end of World War I. A total of 3,300 DVII were produced and over 700 were in service after the war ended.
Hangar 9 brings this Great War legend to life as a remarkable giant-scale ARF with scale details to truly do the legendary Fokker D.VII justice. The model has been expertly built to exacting standards utilizing lightweight balsa and plywood. The result is an ARF model that goes together easily with outstanding appearance and friendly flying manners. Even the most discerning modeler will appreciate the exceptional level of details like molded machine guns, scale pilot figure, cockpit details and 8" scale tires, just to name a few. Shock-absorbing main landing gear takes most of the bounce out of grass strips. Genuine UltraCote covering provides an exterior finish that replicates scale-inspired colors with distinction. The Fokker D.VII is designed to accommodate a variety of 30cc to 60cc 2- or 4-stroke gas engines, or brushless electric outrunner motor. All hardware for the recommended power system options is included so assembly is easy and you can get in the air faster. A large top-hatch makes any maintenance and battery changes simple, while providing easy access to electronic components.
Whether this is your first giant scale World War I aircraft or the perfect complement to your scale collection, you won't find a replica Fokker D.VII that better captures the spirit of this Great War Legend!
The Fokker D.VII 30-60cc ARF is also part of a complete line of top-quality Hangar 9® aircraft. All are engineered and crafted to exacting standards and feature the finest components and materials. Plus, every Hangar 9 product comes with the after-sale service and technical support you need to succeed. - Zábava
Beautiful job Papa !! Beautiful flying Wes !!! The cockpit is looking amazing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Guys, if you are a long time subscriber, you know this is not the only video, We will have what we call the performance flight next.. So, stay tuned for more action. Thanks, everyone for your interest in what we do. We hope, in the future you will be along for the ride and excitement when we bring you a new adventure. Thank you so much! Papa
You guys did this plane up right. Pure perfection! 👏👏👏
She looks and flys fantastic! Nice build Papa B 👍✈️
You are right, it is NOT a DR7 but simply a D7. I flew mine with the tail skid for awhile but trying to turn from taxiing downwind became a real pain so I relented and installed a tail wheel after all. At 20 lbs you will find that this is a very lightly loaded airframe (18.6 oz/sq ft) and flies and handles like a dream. I originally installed a DLE 61 in mine and later exchanged it for a GP 60 electric which has far more power. Taking it easy I get 10 - 12 minutes on 2 6s 5000 packs (12s). A fabulous airplane with great manners - thanks again Hangar 9 and Ali Machinchy.
What esc did you go with?
What an awesome and joyful video! This is the kind of build I aspire to one day. The paint job, the sound, the lack of trim needed, you should be very proud of this one! Amazing.
Thank you we are very happy with it make sure your subscribed we have many more big builds under construction 😉
Great looking and flying D7, great Papa painting, nice flying, and great video, Jeff in LA USA
Big Beautiful Biplane. Looking forward to hearing it with the sound turned up.
Holy smokes that is absolutely EPIC 🔥 Beautiful paint job. The sound effects is sick. Sounds insanely real.
Awesome Fokker 🔥👍✌️
Glad you like it! It is definitely next level on this bird
@@MerryBoozerRC Agreed. Nice flying bro. 🔥👍✌️
Great job guys! The Fokker DVII is also my favorite. I have an older electrifly version and I absolutely love it! These DVII's all seem to fly the same regardless of their size and are just a blast. You did a really nice job on the paint and choice of graphics as well. And the sound system is fantastic! That is one beautiful airplane! Take good care of her!
Our pleasure!
What a very cool aircraft. This is one model that I would like too have. Nice video review thanks for taking the time too post it.
Glen, thank you for your review. The Boozers are trying hard to be the best quality RC reviewers on the net. We are not there yet, but with people like yourself, we will keep trying. We also are inspired when we hear comments like yours. Hope you have fair winds and soft landings in your future. Papa
@@papaboozer3842 thanks Papa, I think the paint job that you did on the biplane looks great! I have a new 31 cc gasoline twin cylinder engine ready too go into a plane and was thinking of this one!? I know you can go as high as a 60cc. But Im thinking the boxer style twin 31cc would be OK for scale type flying. What are your thoughts?
@@RC-Flight Glen, I cannot say enough about this airplane. Yes, it is not a true scale airplane. If you want one of those you must go to Balsa USA. I would rather have good flight performance, than correct scale. Also, you can throw a lot of weight to this plane and not worry about performance. I am building a 1/3 scale Pup from Balsa USA, it will never fly like this plane and will be a pain to transport and assemble at the field. This plane for its size is designed well for transport. I have no droughts about your motor choice, watch the video from Horizon. Very informative.
Good job guys... magic
Papa, Wesley ,Man that is really nice. Setup looked perfect. Love the personal touch y’all put into your models. Just spot on. Love to see that one in person someday. 👍👍 wayyy up. 👊👍😎
Geez, and that's the 'scale' power setup. Great work all around.
Right I want to try it on the Spektrum 55cc electric motor now haha
Wow guys 👍amazing 👏 I absolutely love that airplane!😍
Us too!
Love to see a video on your setup. I like the sound and the electric system but have no idea of your setup. I have this plane NIB and want it just like yours
Looks so good guys! What a beautiful air craft
Great flying and looking bird. I’m jealous. Great job guys.
Don't be jealous, take a challenge. Life is to short. I try to keep my repaints simple. I hope rhis lights a spark within. Papa
Really nice job guys! Papa that paint job is absolutely stunning! I have one of these in the box...now you have me thinking sound system when I was considering selling it...I'm out of room. May have to just make it work! Very, very impressed. Great job. FYI...you can get a scale Axis propeller by Xoar from Just Model Props...and they are out of Florida. They are listed as gas props, but the electrics can turn them no issues. Got them on all my E WWI birds. They have several types of WWI painted props.
You should! it flys so good get that bad boy out the box
SWEET. An amazing looking plane. This Old Man agrees with Big and Slow. Got 6 planes with sound systems. My problem is a large fleet of almost 60 planes out of space for any more large planes. Great flying Wes. Ms Lori always awesome video. Love you guys ✈️🧔💝💝
Lol 😂 I feel your pain on space haha over 200 models at the boozers Hangar
@@MerryBoozerRC WOW. And I thought I had a problem 🤣✈️🧔💝💝
Na your just starting to figure out the issue. One or two more planes you might find the Answer to the problem hahahaha
@@MerryBoozerRC 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Kind regards Steve NZ 😀
Wow that is absolutely stunning! Kudos to both of you for making that! Curious about the sound system, any chance you can share a link to the one that you used? Again, great flight and look forward to hearing that thing cranked up and loud! LOL
