I noticed you trying to ground turn the bird. You had the elevators up. To ground turn a plow tail, turn rudder in desired direction, elevators down and give the throttle a quick blast. The first time you try this it might startle you. So get off the throttle fast. Its like all your flight lessons. Do it alot be fore you acually try to take off. Practice the turning only. Just until you get the hang of it. It will lift the tail off the ground and turn at the same time.
Actually standing behind the Dr-1 while taking off is a very good way to take off without ground looping. (that is the term)l. The tail skid is like a plow that holds a straight line as long as you keep up elevator(elevator pointing up).
The pilot can test the airspeed by quickly moving rudder left and right in very small amounts. Untli the pilot feels like he has control. Then relaxe the elevator.
The the bird will lift on her own and the rudder will keep her straight! Great Job!
Lovely plane. Bad practice taking off with the pilot behind the plane though. From that perspective the pilot cannot gauge how fast the plane is going and at what angle the plane is relative to the ground. i have seen two DR1's spin out on take off. Happy Flying. Nice landing
el avión pesa unos 25 kgrms y lleva un motor de 80 c.c y la hélice es la que le corresponde. Al menos en vuelo no le parece que le falte tracción de pala. Piensa que el aparato tiene una envergadura de 3600 mm
Absolutely AWESOME!

Why didn't you just build a 3/4 scale DR.1 big enough for a man to fit in it and fly it, if you are going to build soemthing that huge???

@lolpranksta im not taking it seriously im just going by my own experience flying.
You fly it really well and has to be the best looking fokker DR.1 ive seen in model form for ages. I accept that its a small place. Happy flying
