Fokker Dr.I Triplane
Fokker Dr.I Triplane (1:1 Scale)
The Fokker Dr.I (Dreidecker, "triplane" in German), often known simply as the Fokker Triplane, was a World War I fighter aircraft built by Fokker-Flugzeugwerke. The Dr.I saw widespread service in the spring of 1918. It became famous as the aircraft in which Manfred von Richthofen gained his last 19 victories, and in which he was killed on 21 April 1918.

DESCRIPTION & FEATURES
Updated in 2 Jan 2024 with added weapons, revamped wings, fuselage, some instruments and many more.
OUTDATED INFO: Fokker Dr.I is very lightweight. Making 1:1 scale of this tiny triplane was a challenge. But I’m happy with the result. It is quite easy and fun to fly. Using control surfaces as wings combined with correctly adjusted CoM made glide landing possible. The propeller may hit ground and break if you don’t care but it usually doesn’t if you use it in runways. It had custom machine gun sound when you press [3] but it’s now only beeps after 1.0 update. Flying should feel like light WW1 era fighter plane as much as possible in Stormworks physics.
