product details

premium edition. all in

a premium edition is an all-in solution up to the Modelkasten rigging wire. we believe it should be possible to build a gorgeous scale model without the need to figure out what is all availble, useful or needed in terms of aftermarket. don't get us wrong, we love the aftermarket, which is why we offer it on www.gothaforce.com. it is just that we want to provide a convenient and enjoyable experience straight out of the box.

unique. ace authentic

every single Fokker DVII OAW 3.0 premium edition is unique with tailored parts specific to the scheme, backed by thorough research to ensure historical accuracy. we did the heavy-lifting to save you both time having to figure it out by yourself ... and money with no need for aftermarket items, conversions, drilling holes, or other modifications.

fits. like a glove

every part has been meticulously reimagined from the ground up with an easy and enjoyable modellers' experience in mind. Fokker D.VII OAW 3.0 has been designed and engineered to eliminate much of the tedious, time-consuming work, ensuring your precious project does not have to end up as a shelf queen. many parts do no require a need for glue, allowing you to build and dry-fit before final assembly, which aligns well with the assembly methods of WWI aircraft scale models. Fokker D.VII OAW 3.0 simply redefines the build experience for ultimate ease and satisfaction.

light. years ahead

Fokker DVII OAW 3.0 weighs less than 100g ... its top wing about 30g. no half-assed solutions are needed such as reinforcing struts with metal rods ... which would not work as the struts of a Fokker DVII do not allow to do so. as a result, Fokker DVII OAW 3.0 upholds well with our in-scale 3D printed struts.

100% 3d printed. in a cutting edge way

100% cutting edge 3d printed according to latest technology and using specially formulated resins, our premium editions are single material type, removing the hassle to merge different material properties such as photo etch. 

multi-color. in 3 shades of grey

Fokker DVII OAW 3.0 come in three different colors, each chosen with purpose. this thoughtful approach gives you the perfect base for painting and weathering, saving you time and elevating the final result. most striking are the gorgeous alabaster-white parts with their silky finish, designed especially for fabric-covered surfaces. with just a light clear coat, they come to life, as our carefully matched translucent decals blend seamlessly to reveal the authentic tones beneath.

securely packed. for safe landing

every part is nestled in its own purpose-cut foam cradle, inviting you to uncover each piece one by one. more than just smart protection, this thoughtful design turns unboxing into an wow experience, safe, organized, and full of anticipation as every delicate detail awaits its moment to be brought to life

    a lot of love & some surprises

what's in the box

a practical double-sided leaflet ... kept separate from the booklet ... so it's always within easy reach ... no need to flip back and forth through pages ... just a handy one-pager to quickly see what's inside and find exactly what you need

delightful ... logical ... secure

unboxing 3.0

because doing it in the classic way ... would feel like knocking on your door ... without even a proper hello ... or a handshake

top

flight deck

make no mistake ... this is not just a top layer ... it's where missions start and regrets fade. shaken, stirred ... yet nothing short of spectacular

005

5th floor - wings & things

we keep wings on the fifth floor ... just high enough to spark ambition, just low enough to let gravity wonder ... any higher and they could take off on their own

004

4th floor - the compact kingdom

efficiency without ego ... think of our fourth floor as strategically placed greatness in miniature ... built entirely from the sacred logic "i will need this later"

003

3rd floor - the quiet bodyguard

other than a few pilot's essentials, our third floor is mainly about security clearance ... so that everything below sleeps safe and sound

002

2nd floor - the mezzanine

one protective layer wasn't enough ... so we added another. no parts ... just double coverage, zero compromise ... that's our second floor

001

1st floor - the fundamentals

first in place ... last to touch. not forgotten ... just preserved ... to save the best for last. gold lives at the bottom ... luxury knows its place, in subdued fashion

briefing

Fokker D.VII OAW 3.0 comes with a contemporary, beautifully designed 32-page instruction booklet, bound with premium Wire-O for a true flat-lay, making it both durable and convenient to use throughout your build

the art is the aircraft. the soul is the story

history worth sharing

each Fokker DVII OAW 3.0 kit has been carefully crafted with parts unique to its scheme, and every one carries its own little story, not only of the pilot, but also how it came to be

briefings

sneak preview ...

sample pages of our briefings ... enough to give you the feel of what's inside ... if you want to see them all ... we recommend to just buy the kit ... showing everything would only spoil the surprise

Gothaforce Fokker DVII OAW 3.0 Walter Blume - Briefing - Video

e-learning

as if this was not enough ... and probably as an industry first ... our educational package combines off-line (paper briefing) and on-line learning (videos)

all it takes is ... scanning the QR code to access sets of videos ... that demonstrate how things are done ... because seeing something in action ... can be more effective than reading about it

it's also a great way ... to clear up common misconceptions about 3D printing ... what we like to call 3Dmystification

save on shipping


just flagging this ... because many customers end up ordering it separately ... incurring extra shipping costs

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

why 1 SKU = 1 scheme ?

we believe offering multiple decal options in the same box is just a result of plastic injection moulding technology constraints to optimize the use of costly moulds. it results in waste, unused parts, more complicated instructions (if this > then that), etc ...

3D printing offers a new world of possibilities. due to batch size 1, everything can be made unique and tailored to a particular scheme, it keeps thing simple, there is no waste, it ships lighter, ...

what is #gothafit ?

#gothafit is based on the principle of being able to put parts together without the need for glue.

It has been driven by a negative perception in the market related to the fact that resin requires hit and miss CA glue for adhesion. we would like your model to stick together, not your fingers.

so instead of going with the flow ... we turned the question completely upside down and asked ourselves the question: "what if we would not need glue at all ?

80% of Fokker DVII OAW 3.0 just snaps into place ... without the need for glue

what is #gothaflash ?

for the remaining odd 20% of Fokker DVII OAW 3.0 ... we use resin UV bonding ... a.k.a. #gothaflash

unlike UV glue bonding, resin UV bonding uses the same material - resin - to create the bond ... it is as if you are manually 3d printing that missing layer
