B7190 'Donner Wetter!' 

Flown by Cpt.W.G.R.Hinchliffe 1918

History in the Making

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 Sopwith F.1 Camel replicates one of the most iconic aircraft of the WWI era to a level that sets a new bar for micro scale RC.

This Microaces Kit is a replica of the 1918 Sopwith F.1 Camel flown by Walter George Raymond Hinchliffe AKA 'Hinch' of 10 Squadron RNAS in 1918.

Hinch's Camel B7190 was distinctively decorated with its white and blue detailing including the words Donner Wetter! on the each side of the fuselage, the German for 'Thunderstorm'. 

Hinch survived the war with 6 confirmed kills, qualifying him an Ace. He was awarded the DFC for his endeavours after he was shot through the forehead and crashed in the Nieppe forest, after which he lost the sight in his left eye and suffered severe facial injuries.

Included in this multi-media model is a vac-formed cowl, free spinning 3D printed fuel pump prop and rigging part PLUS a spinning dummy rotary engine kit. All these extras add an incredible level of mechanical and visual detail to this astounding model.  

NEW 3D Rotary Engine & Machine Gun Detail Pack 

This 'Detail Pack' comes FREE with this kit during our Black Friday Event.

NOW AVAILABLE for the Microaces Sopwith F.1 Camel is the 3D printed Clerget 9B Rotary Engine and Vicker Machine Gun detail pack to provide even more scale to the model. And YES, the motor does spin with the prop - of course!
