The Hanriot HD.1 was a French World War I single-seat fighter aircraft. Rejected for service with French squadrons in favour of the SPAD S.7. The type was supplied to the Belgian and the Italian air forces, with whom it proved highly successful. Of a total of about 1,200 examples built, 831 were produced by Italian companies under licence.

 

This beautiful radio controlled replica of the Hanriot HD.1 was built and flown at LMA Cosford Show by Ian Turney.

Awesome,

 

That is a lovely scale bird and flown as such, right down to the dodgy landing- which I am sure many a period pilot did.

 

Love the sound of the big redrive prop. bonus for electric start.

 

What? Use the runway?  Nah just taxi into flight. Don't want to wear out the tyres.
