Harold55 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 I just built their 1/48 Caudron G4 and it was probably the best model I have ever built. They do very nice work and this should be a great kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrejet Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 I posted a while back that I hoped Copper State would jump in where WNW had been, and so it seems. This promises to be a very impressive kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold55 Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 This was confirmed by CSM on their facebook page on April 2nd. Looks like they plan on releasing this in 2021. https://m.facebook.com/copperstatemodels/posts/2720441618244580 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd be suprised how important it was in the early days of the war. Flown by many nations, and lots of variants too. Then later used for an extended period as a trainer.

TimK Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Albert Ball VC learned on a G.III - as seen in the iconic portrait photo of him in uniform, hatless, with his coat over his left arm. Among many others my great uncle Harold Jackson trained on a G.III with the Ruffy Baumann school at Hendon, getting his licence in May 1915 before going on to die in June 1917 in an FE8 with 41 Sqn. There's a good Wikipedia entry on the type, which was operated by no less than 28 countries. I hope the kit sells well. T. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homebee Posted December 10, 2021 Author Share Posted December 10, 2021 Source: https://www.facebook.com/copperstatemodels/posts/3139329343022470 Quote Finally, we are now able to show the full set of our 32006 Caudron G.III plastic kit "what is in the box". Those who pre-ordered this kit will have a bit more, but we will show that later on. The good news is we are now waiting for those plastic runners to arrive here in Riga, as they were picked up and are now on it`s way to Latvia and in 10 days they should be at our office. Another good news, we should have some Caudrons kits available after the pre-order period, which should be closed on Monday the 13th. But it will be a limited stock, so grab them while you still can, or "while the stock last". The rest is on its way by Train, it is more than a month in transit, from what we know it should be around very late JAN or FEB 2022. But don`t worry, all of the pre-ordered kits, should be dispatched before Christmas V.P. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first batch should be in Riga on the 20th of DEC, that is when we are planning to start sending the orders, so if all goes well we should be able to finish sending them before Christmas V.P. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redcap Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I had no interest in this aircraft as a subject ( I have all their Nieuports) but having seen this model and options....further resistance appears futile! That's a lovely model and overall package. Gary 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
