Aviatik 30.40
A parasol monoplane derivative of the Aviatik 30.27, the Aviatik 30.40 was powered by a similar 160hp Steyr Le Rhone 11-cylinder rotary engine, and only one prototype was built and flown during the summer of 1918. The Aviatik 30.40 was of wooden construction. The forward fuselage was covered by light metal panels and the remainder of the fuselage was ply covered. The wing had fabric skinning, and steel-tube bracing struts were employed.

Thanks to willsonman for the model.
Various adjustments for decent flight performance in RF 7.5.
Flight controls include throttle, rudder, ailerons, elevator.
Functional servo arms and wires. Scale shock-absorbing skid.
Fly with the channel 5 rate switch in the “High” position.
The parasol wing contributes greatly to the “vintage feel” flying characteristics of the model. Easy handling. Not the best of gliders, so you will need to fly it all the way in when landing.
