CUSTOM SCALING
We understand that everyone builds aircraft models in different scales, and it is not feasible for us to create a set of models for every scale. Therefore, you can adjust the size of the model according to your requirements.
To change the scale, modify the .3MF file by either increasing or decreasing the model size in percentage. The model is provided in a 1/8 scale.

Examples of scale changes:
To change to a 1/6 scale, increase the model size by 33.3%.
To change to a 1/10 scale, decrease the model size by 20%.

3D printable figure pilot
The pilot figurine sitting in the cockpit is one of the most important components of every RC airplane. It is crucial for the overall aesthetic impression, as nothing is worse than seeing a beautifully built model airplane spoiled by an unattractive or missing pilot figurine. However, many modelers consider this small detail to be insignificant. Nevertheless, we believe that it is a misconception, and therefore, we offer a wide selection of 3D printed pilot and crew models ranging from the 1st and 2nd World War eras to the modern era of aviation.

Description

Max Immelmann was a German fighter pilot during World War I, credited with 15 confirmed aerial victories. He was one of the first German aces, and is known for pioneering the tactic of using a synchronized machine gun to shoot down enemy aircraft.

Immelmann flew a number of different aircraft during the war, including the Fokker Eindecker, the Albatros D.II, and the Fokker Dr.I. However, he is most closely associated with the Fokker Eindecker, which was the first German aircraft to be equipped with a synchronized machine gun.

The Eindecker allowed Immelmann to become one of the most successful German pilots of the early part of the war. His use of the synchronized machine gun and his aggressive tactics made him a formidable opponent for Allied pilots.

Despite his success, Immelmann was eventually shot down and killed in June 1916. The exact circumstances of his death are still debated, but it is generally believed that he was hit by ground fire while pursuing an Allied aircraft.

Today, Immelmann is remembered as a pioneering figure in the development of air combat tactics. His use of the synchronized machine gun and his aggressive approach to aerial combat influenced the tactics of many pilots who followed him.
