Overview

The SIG Dornier Do 217 kit is a semi-scale model of one of Germany’s most interesting and deadly night fighters of WWII. This very nice flying twin-engine electric design is loaded with features that make its construction straight forward and easy. Using the radio system and power recommendations provided in the fully illustrated assembly manual, the Do 217 model will provide superb 4-channel capability with power to spare. It can slow down to scale-like speeds and is capable of all the typical maneuvers, such as big, graceful loops, military type rolls, stall turns, etc. Landings are easy with that big wing and dual fins and rudders working to keep the airplane stable through virtually all flight speeds. The SIG Do 217 is absolutely the perfect semi-scale model for your entry into the exciting world of electric twinengine flight!
