Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Air Models / November 2003WTB: WW1 Albatross
Hey all, I have been in search for a long time, a flyable or kit of the German, WW1 Albatross. Not interested in the new foam jobs but something that will be able to use a 4 stroke engine. Let me know. Alan allail at comcast dot net I'm not entirely sure, but I believe I saw a plan for one on E-bay last night. I realize its not a kit, but it would be a starting point.

SignatureDave S, Kuusankoski, Finland. http://personal.inet.fi/koti/david.smith/rcair/ My return address requires modification before use. Try Fun Aero R/C on the web - 60" DII and 65" DIII - laser cut kits - I've heard good things about the kits but have no personal experience with them.

They'll have to pry this one out of my col, dead fingers. Sometime in the future, I'd like to build the Albatros III. Tom J. Proctor Enterprises has the Albatross. A bit pricey but their kits are well worth it.

The Proctor kit builds a very fine Albatross. It is considered museum scale. However, you must be committed to spending many months to build it. In these days of ARF planes, there aren't many who seem to be taking on projects of this scale. Jim - AMA 501383 > Proctor Enterprises has the Albatross.

Myself, I was hoping to find a sport scale Albatross when I posted this. Maybe one that someone has lost interest in. I found one fellow that has a nice scale kit for sale, and am concidering it, but it really wasn't what I was after. Anyone have a sport scale, NOT FOAM, DII to DV Albatross kit or partial build they wish to part with, please contact me.

I have not built one, but I know one of the designers, and his planes tend to be light, well built, and fly well. They have 2 Albatross versions (D.II and D.III), which would work well with 90-91 size 4 strokes. I marked the web page and have been drolling on them since you posted. Thankyou. Still looking for somthing that someone might have lost interest in. If all else fails, then I will go that way. Then have to find a 90-91 four stroke.

Fun-Aero has a nice 60" kit.less than $200 I believe.Arizona has a 1/4 scale kit for 4xs that.Another option is a set of 1/4 scale DII(or DIII) plans featured a year ago in a British mag,Scale international........I have the magazine buried in attic,and could find it if necessary.The early Albatross they built from those plans was VERY nice,and described as very docile.........a little different than typical DVa.
