Product Description
――The Bugatti 100P is a racing airplane planned by the automobile manufacturer Bugatti in France in 1938.
――Bugatti founder Ettore Bugatti started designing 100P with Louis de Monge as the chief designer to win the 1940 competition of the air race [Deutsch de la Murto Cup].
――However, the completion of the aircraft was not in time for the race application deadline of September 1939, and I was not able to participate.
――When World War II broke out, 100P was hidden in a barn in the countryside, and 100P rediscovered after the war is now on display at the EAA Air Venture Museum in the United States.
――This aircraft did not actually fly, but the production project of a 100P replica aircraft started in 2009, and the first flight was made in 2015.
――The aircraft is an all-wood monoplane made of balsa wood and hard wood, and has a forward wing and a V-tail with an air intake on the leading edge.
--The landing gear is a retractable leg, and the engine is equipped with two Bugatti-developed [Type 50C] (450 horsepower) in the fuselage at the rear of the cockpit to drive the nose's counter-rotating propeller.
――The maximum speed in the plan was planned to be about 805km / h.
--The kit comes with a resin air intake, exhaust pipe, and landing gear hangar parts.
--Completely new mold
