About product

Sopwith Camel two-seat trainer 1:72 - Roden

An injection-molded plastic kit of the two-seat trainer version of the famous British fighter Sopwith F.1 Camel of the First World War, in 1:72 scale from the brand Roden. The set contains plastic parts with reproduced fabric surfaces, a detailed engine and cockpits, and a decal sheet. As a biplane it calls for rigging, that is stretching the wires between the wings and to the fuselage.

The real subject

The trainer version of the Camel was created in 1918 by converting the fighter into a two-seat aircraft. The armament was removed, the fuel tank was made smaller and a front cockpit for a second crew member was inserted ahead of the original one. The changes tamed the Camel's nervous behavior and lowered the risk of falling into a spin, so the machine was suited to training pilots on this famously agile but treacherous type.

Building and painting tips

Finish and paint the engine and both cockpits before closing the fuselage. Glue the plastic with thin modeling cement. After spraying the base, paint the model with an airbrush and bring the fabric surface to life with a fine wash. Count on rigging - stretch the wires with elastic filament, for example, ideally only after painting.

Who the model is for

  • For collectors of First World War aircraft
  • For anyone interested in trainer and less common versions of the Camel
  • For modelers with experience of rigging biplanes
  • For lovers of 1:72 scale

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It was created by converting the fighter into a two-seat aircraft: the armament was removed, the fuel tank was made smaller and a front cockpit for a second crew member was inserted ahead of the original one.

Yes. It is a biplane, so the wires need to be stretched between the wings and to the fuselage. We recommend preparing for them before the build.

In 1:72 scale. The set contains plastic parts with reproduced fabric surfaces, a detailed engine, both cockpits and a decal sheet.
