Bücker Bü133 Jungmeister

This third scale model although very detailed may be build very quick. Most of the parts are made of wood but in some places mostly to enable to show more details we used glass fibre. For example the complete fwd. covering starting from the firewall to the cockpit is GF made.  This is to cut down the effort for showing small details as access doors and their hinges, rivets  and louvers which are mainly in that fwd. area.   One of these access doors you may use to cover behind the tank filler caps and on / off switches.  After the main internal structure has been finished this fwd. cover may be easily glued to the internal structure and will give you immediately a completely finished  highly detailed, ridged and light weight fuselage.

This Bücker kit has been manufactured for  the scale enthusiast. Our research activities and experience with scale projects did lead to a  model which is offered nowhere else.

All ribs and bulkheads, etc. are manufactured in high CAD /  CAM quality. All struts and undercarriage wires are pre-bend and already silver soldered. Engine cowling with attached rocker covers and  …..mm dia. aerodynamically shaped wing struts and rigging wire are part of this kit. All parts which are necessary to build this model are in the box. The only parts you have to order in addition are glue, wheels, covering material and engine.           

We recommend to use a Zenoha 60 as power plant for this model. In the prototype there was a two cylinder Zenoha 80 installed which gave  capability for vertical flights to the orbit. This configuration with 1 litre of fuel weight is well below 11Kg.

The model is as the real aircraft fully aerobatic. There is no manoeuvre which is not to be flown with the Bücker. Loops positive, negative, knife edge, turns, you name it. The velocity range of the model is very wide.  It may be flown very fast but in the final it can be slowed down to unbelievable low speeds. If you may fly it too slow the Bücker will just go slightly on its nose to increase speed. During all that period the model will stay fully steer able.

If the three view drawing incorporated in the instructions is not enough we can provide a set of 56 photos, showing the Original from all perspectives. The set is showing the marvellous restored Bücker built in 1935 in Germany owned by Udett (Famous German Pilot). Later the aircraft was sold to Aresiti. It is still in the possession of the Aresiti and stationed at the Cuatro Vientos Airfield Madrid Spain where it is still flown once a month during summer.
