“Caudron” G. III - the training and reconnaissance aircraft

The “Caudron” G. III aircraft was built in 1913 at the “Caudron Issyles brothers” in Muline, France. It was a very atypical one-and-a-half plane with the 80 h. p. power “Le Rhone” rotary engine, mounted at the rear of the central gondola and rotating a pushing propeller. The gondola was constructed in the shape of a boat and had two-seater dual control scheme. During World War I this aircraft was also used for reconnaissance flights. British pilots also flew with them. With them, they even produce under license. French, British, Russian, Belgian, Portuguese, Italian and US military aviation were used as training planes. A total of over 2,800 machines are produced.

A simple model for any experienced modeler, just starting out would be better off working under the supervision of a more experienced colleague.
