1911 Caudron Racer UM

We know you will enjoy this little vintage 1911 Caudron Racer UM – ripped from the pages of the May 11, 1912 edition of Flight magazine and now offered in kit form ready to patrol your school yard or gymnasium. The 1911 Caudron monoplane was first flown in December 1911 and competed in the 1912 Aerial Derby. The design featured simple wood and fabric construction, absurdly small wings, and was fitted with the latest from Anzani, a 45 h.p. prototype 6 cylinder radial.

The Stevens AeroModel 1911 Caudron Racer UM retains the slender lines and profile that net the model a delightfully smooth feel. Ample dihedral, generous washout, and appropriate flying surface volume equal great stability that will allow your mind to wander into the cockpit and back in time as you pilot this splendid craft on those dawn and dusk patrols of the local weed patch. Advanced builders are encouraged to add their own finishing touches, we have provided pre-cut scale rigging points and fabricated balsa wheel covers for the optional 1-1/2″ spindle wheels.
