The ubiquitous Brandenburg C.I was originally developed by
Hansa und Brandenburgische Flugzeugwerke AG, but even more of the planes were built by Phönix and UFAG. Eventually almost a quarter of all Austro-Hungarian planes built were Brandenburg C.I variants, with about 1,200 delivered. It was built in 20 different series by the three companies, with a wide variety of armament mounts, adjustments in proportions, radiator mounts, and engines.
This model represents the early Phönix-built Series 26 with no forward-firing gun, long fuselage, a top-wing fuel canister, swept wings, and an uncowled 160hp Hiero engine. The product comes in both 1:144 and 1:285/6mm/1:288 scales.
The 1:285 scale model contains two aeroplanes, each comes with a detachable, translucent propeller disk. They are joined by disposable links to keep the price down, since single-part models are more affordable. You can break the links with nail clippers, wire cutters, or similar.
DESIGNER NOTE:
Models at scales smaller than 1:144 may no longer be available. Shapeways discontinued the material for which they were designed, and the newer materials require that each and every model be adjusted to thicken surfaces like wings. If you are interested in a particular model in a small scale, please let me know and I will prioritize it higher in the queue.
