This great looking balsa Nieuport offers a simple but satisfying build for the WW1 enthusiast, the end result being a sturdy and great flying model of a classic fighter.
The model is well built and nicely covered, all hardware is supplied as are the scale details like the machine gun, dummy engine and exhausts. This great priced model also offers an in-expensive build, which set up with the right motor will have superb slow fly capability coupled with plenty of power on tap for aerobatics when needed. This model has everything to offer the enthusiast, great price, great looks and great performance!
Ordered this model on Wednesday and arrived Friday morning. Kit was well packed in its box, which was then placed in a stout box for mailing. Quality of kit is excellent with no warped or damaged components. No instructions are included, however these can be found on the international site on the files tag for this product.
When built I will leave a review of its flying characteristics, if it flys as well as it is built there should be no problem. Cheers HK.

What a nice little model. Mine arrive from the UK warehouse in 24 hours along with a Turnigy SK3 2826 980Kv motor and some HK10 gram servos, the white digital ones, HKSCM9-6 Singlechip Digital Micro Servo (6V) 10g / 1.6kg / 0.07s (UK Warehouse) they seem like an ideal servo for this model. The model goes together easily but is missing the pushrods as others have reported and the gunmount needs to be fabricated from thin wire, nothing that the target audience that this model is aimed at would have any difficulty with. With my set up, using Turnigy Nanotech 1300 packs and a 10x4.7 apc slowfly prop the model flys beautifully and needed only 3 clicks of downtrim to maintain level flight, it's an absolute delight in the air and really captures the spirit of the real thing. But be aware it does get bounced around in a breeze which makes landings "interesting". A nice model for the price, I would buy another in a heart beat.
