Breeze Drifter Seaplane DIY Aircraft Mechanical Model Kit
The Frenchman Alphonse Pénaud filed the first patent for a flying machine with a boat hull and retractable landing gear in 1876, but Austrian Wilhelm Kress is credited with building the first seaplane, Drachenflieger, in 1898 
The idea of crossing a boat and an airplane came to the minds of people who carefully studied the world around them. Like the idea of ​​aeronautics in general. Of course, their humanity borrowed from birds. I consider the beginning of the era of flying boats to be the 10s of the 20th century, although the first hydroplane took off in the air as early as 1909. It was created by the American inventor Curtis based on its own engine. In 1913, the Ukrainian designer Grigorovich tested the M-1 hydroplane, which marked the beginning of the era of flying boats.
The history of aviation honors the records set by seaplanes: two dead loops on Grigorovich’s amphibian, the speed record of the Soviet Be-10 at 912 km / h, the world’s largest flying boat, created in China already in the 20s of the new century.
The designers of “Metal Time” could not ignore this important milestone in the desire of mankind to fly and presented the modular model “Breeze Drifter.”
This is a prototype that incorporates the characteristics of a typical propeller hydroplane. Of course, it does not float, but it has a spring mechanism that drives the screws of the “engines.”
