Nice! Tom, I recommend using Aeroclub's elasticated rigging thread and super glue - one reel will probably last the average modeller through a lifetime's collection of externally braced aircraft, not to mention aerials and external control cables. I recently rigged an AMT Staggerwing - I won't call the resulting model outstanding as it was my first effort, but with a bit of encouragement from a mate it was relatively easy, even with my inherent clumsiness, fat fingers and unsteady hands. I'm hoping that by the time I rig my next biplane (an Aeroclub Gipsy Moth) I will be better prepared - I hope so, I've got quite a few biplanes and triplanes in the stash including the Blue Max Avro 504 - quite the scariest of the lot... Or is it the Lindberg Jenny? Got two of those as well... The other Staggerwing (I've always been a sucker for the type!) should be a doddle though! |
