That Sopwith looks pretty nice...and so does that Albatross Dv...

I bet one of those could eat up some time.....lol

lol - thats too much...I looked at the sopwiths instruction booklet...evidently the control surfaces work with stick ad rudder input. I dont think I have the patience to thread all the control wire, let alone the rigging!

That's something my dad would do in his spare time.

When my mom isn't nagging him to do something else.

Wife ack...there's no escaping it.

That's what I thought about the Wright Flyer model that I did, wasn't too bad, the Sopwith probably has tons more to do though, more intricately, and more fragile. I personally liked the cannons they are just crazy expensive.

On the other hand I think I recall seeing the local hobby shop carrying little cannons like that. Might have to go have a looksy when I get some spare time and cash.
