Model: Triplane Fokker DR.1 Pilot: Gernot Bruckmann Scale: 1:1.5 Wingspan: 4,80 m Weight: 88 kg Engine: Valach 7 Cyl.Radial 820 cc Propeller: 59" Event: ProWing 2019, Bad Sassendorf, Germany Modellpilot conducted a detailed video interview with Gernot Bruckmann about himself and met him at the product presentation of the new Extra 330 SC from MULTIPLEX Modellsport at the LSV Bruchsal airfield. Gernot Bruckmann is one of the best model aircraft pilots in the world and is an icon in today's model flight scene. What distinguishes this talent and what makes it so successfulGernot Bruckmann flew his latest scratch-built project, this 66% Bede BD-5 J at Jet Power last week, and here’s the video to prove it! This large scale model of the worlďs smallest jet takes advantage of its low weight (53 pounds!) to really put on a show. The 136-inch-span turbine-powered jet is 100 inches long. We think James Bond has some serious competition from Gernot, who’s a world-champion RC pilot and owns GB-Models! Our thanks to YouTube’s Bunterfisch for taking this great video at Jet Power and sharing it with us.
