Sopwith Camel 1/16 Model Airways

Wooden model airplane kit of the SOPWITH CAMEL F1 at 1/16 scale from the American brand Model Airways .

A static model that cannot fly.

A 1:16 scale wooden and metal replica as detailed as the real thing, there has never been a model airplane as detailed as the Sopwith Camel from Model Airways .

We have reproduced virtually every detail of this legendary aircraft in the form of a 1:16 scale model kit.
An exceptional kit, faithful to the original. The real Sopwith Camel had no plastic parts. Neither does our model.

The kit reproduces every part of the Sopwith in materials very similar to those used in the original aircraft. The components are first-class, starting with hundreds of laser-cut, aircraft-grade birch and basswood parts.

An ultra-detailed Clerget 9-B rotary engine with cylinders, distributor and crankcase to assemble from over 70 precision-cast tin parts.

More than 350 other pieces in tin, brass and rubber, as well as copper wire, reproduce virtually every detail.

No prior model-making experience is required, even if you've never built a model before. Five sheets of plans and 44 pages of step-by-step instructions with clear drawings and photographs guide you through creating an authentically detailed, museum-quality model.
