Page 3: Horizontal Stabilizer
In the late spring of 1918 a new fighter plane appeared on the scene. It had a rate of climb and maneuverability which was unparalleled through the end of the war. The Siemens Schuckert was universally described as the ultimate fighter of WW1. With such stellar performance and rave reviews, why have you never heard of it then? Its chief advantage was also its Achilles heel. -
Page 4: Vertical Stabilizer
Vertical stabilizer: This a simple part. Construct the frame with ¼ x 3/8 and install the ¼ square cross piece. Sheet this part with 3/32” balsa and you are done. Rudder: Begin by stripping 6 pieces of 1/16” x 3/8” x 36” balsa to form the laminated outline. These strips should be soaked in a tub of water for about two hours. -
Page 5: Wing Construction
First, a word of warning, if you use the scale torque tube aileron controls, handle the ribs very carefully until the wing is cap stripped (Arizona Model Aircrafters has laser cut ribs available). We will begin with the bottom wing. First make your 3/8”... - Page 6 The wings are now ready for covering. I used Arizona Model Aircrafters lozenge five-color fabric as it provides the scale appearance I desired. There are a couple of paint schemes which do not require lozenge (Ernst Udet’s plane was almost all red) and I recommend contacting Dan-San Abbott for more information.
- Page 7 Guns and Access Panels: It is now time to start dressing up the SSW! I constructed my guns from Arizona Model Aircrafter kits. Once these are complete, the next task is to build their mounts and shell chutes.
- Page 8 looks right, glue on the guns. If not, trim or shim the mount as required. Next construct the chutes as shown from the C1, C2 and C3 parts. These are then sheeted using 3/32” balsa. Paint the guns and chutes to suit and then install them. Let’s next make the top access panels.
- Page 9 you can line up each louver on its centerline. Repeat the above procedure to reproduce the louvers in the panel. Now drill two ¼” diameter holes in the appropriate location for the landing gear legs. I installed this panel with five #0 screws on each side. Dummy Engine: Begin the dummy engine by cutting out the pieces which make up the crankcase and the cam box.
- Page 10 ADD LEAD OR YOU WILL CRASH! Install your fuel tank and any remaining radio componentry, and at this point fit the spinner (Arizona’s Albatross spinner is just the right size) to your propeller. It’s now time to fly!
