Robert, the wings and most parts of the airframe came from Trumpeter MiG-17.

Album info

English post-war project with the help of German research documents. In January 1952, the Sagittarius "flew" for the first time with the help of a "Schweberig". After some improvements of the steering mechanism and engine control, the prototype 01 was able to successfully take off from the Woomera Test Range in June of the same year.
The model represents the Prototype 03 and was built according to original documents by the Prototype Division of the Neckarwyoming Airplane Factory.
