Title: Eduard's 1/48 Albatros W.4
Post by: fredjocko on March 01, 2021, 10:13:44 PM

How accurate is Eduard's Albatros W.4? I'm thinking a 3D printer could increase the wings and floats by 33% and convert Roden's 1/32 D.I into a W.4...

Does it look like a W.4?

Then it is a W.4 ;) I think the kit is ok and matches the original aircraft. Be careful with the floats, depending on the serial you want to build. The layout of the floats was often changed. Beside that many other details depend on the serial: ailerons on lower wing, number of MGs, radiators .... There was some discussion about those details in my build report.
