50 years of Do 31

Vertical Take Off and Landing – Model Flying World Meeting (RC-VTOL-WM) August 8-12, 2018
Organiser: Dornier Museum Friedrichshafen

With its developments in the field of miniaturised propulsion and flight control technology, the Model Flying Community is a pioneer in manned and unmanned aviation.

The RC-VTOL-WM held on the occasion of the 50th jubilee of the Dornier Do 31 is a model flight meeting for the exchange of information and the presentation of new propulsion and flight control systems on the example of the VTOL aircraft concepts used.

At this meeting, the presentation of advanced propulsion and flight control systems for use in VTOL Fixed Wing Aerial Vehicles has priority. And the cause of the jubilee of the Do 31 - its first complete transition flight – offers an excellent platform for this purpose. Here, the innovative Model Flying Community can present its developments to the general public in a historic environment and relaxed atmosphere, and, at the same time, exchange information among experts and cultivate comradeship and the joy of flying.

The organisers of the RC-VTOL-WM decided to admit not only jet-powered VTOL Semi-Scale Surface Aircraft models but also Semi-Scale Surface Aircraft models powered by propellers or rotors.

This will offer a larger variety of models and propulsion systems to the pilots as well as to the spectators, thus increasing the exchange of information among the participants and the attraction of the event on the whole.
