The Dornier DO-27 is a further development of the DO-25. Changes were made to the wing and the vertical stabilizer, among other things. The fuel tanks, previously designed as external tanks, were integrated into the wings and a Lycoming GO-480-B1A6 was installed as the engine. The significantly heavier unit and the resulting change in the center of gravity made it necessary to relocate and strengthen the chassis. After the construction of a rupture cell for load tests, the production of a prototype began in autumn 1955, which finally took off on October 17, 1956 for the first time. The Bundeswehr was one of the largest buyers and received the first series aircraft on January 14, 1957, which was handed over to Army Aviation Squadron 811 in Niedermendig. The Dornier Do-27 was thus the first German powered aircraft to be mass-produced after the Second World War.

Very nice scale replica of a Dornier DO-27 in a striking red and white paintwork - this model offers perfect flight characteristics with a comfortable size and a balanced drive concept for standard 4S LiPo batteries 14.8V with a capacity of 3000-5000mAh at least 30C. The DO-27 can definitely be classified as a high-decker trainer and appeals to both experienced model pilots and advanced beginners alike. Large scale wheels, LED lighting in the surfaces and on the vertical stabilizer as well as the span of 1600mm with a load-bearing profile give the model short take-off and landing properties - the model hardly knows a stall. The low-speed flight characteristics are fantastic and do not pose any great difficulties for budding pilots. In addition, the eye-catching paintwork offers good visibility in the air, which makes it much easier to identify the general position of the model.
