A MASTERBUILD by a MODEL MASTER BUILDER. I hope this build won a First Prize Award. Worthy of Hall of Fame! Beautiful!

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thanks, Phil, I really hope so

[@markfrommontana]

@@FlyingCircusModels 3 first prizes actually. :)

Far more complicated than stacking BB Pyramids.. Bravo! Quality takes what it takes.

Thank you Scott

Awsome build my friend, the huild tufned out perfectly, you must be very proud of this build, bedt regards from a Kiwi living in Australia 👍👍👍👍

Thank you so much, I really like the result, despite the error I made

Wonderful work!

Thank you, Steven.

Wow this looks fantastic and you must have patience of a saint to do that rigging

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thank you so much, Chris.

Fantastic! You have the patience of Job and the artistic skills of Michaelangelo...Well Done!!😊

This is a wonderful build! I wish that I could do what you have done? Maybe someday. Thank you for sharing your skill!

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thank you so much, I'm sure you will, it just seems too complicated. Good luck!!!

A major pleasure to watch a true craftsman at work! Amazing rigging skills!!

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thanks, Mark

[@MarkMills-y3t]

I just acquired this kit, I've found this very helpful. Your build is quite stunning. Thank you for pointing out the rudder mix-up, I will be careful with that when the time comes. Your rigging is superb, I've made a mental note of some of your methods. Thanks.

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Excellent, thank you and good luck with your build, it's a great model!!

[@robbo1068]

A huge undertaking but a spectacular result.....truly a testament to your artistry, FCM. It was an amazing series and a pleasure to watch so thank you for sharing your skill, especially in this field of aircraft modelling which is a rarity on YT channels. Hopefully the next build won't be as time consuming so will be looking forward to seeing the next notification.

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thank you for the comment, yeah, 4.5 month for one model is too much, I agree. The next project will be much less complicated with less rigging, but the plane has the same country of origin and also no ailerons ;-)

[@robbo1068]

@@FlyingCircusModels Ahhh....thank you for your clue 🙂

[@stephenrose1343]

I have this kit, so have found your build very useful. A beautiful job of a challenging aircraft. Well done.

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thanks Stephen, it's a great kit, enjoy the build!

[@jasonEllison-s8b]

Amazing video. I enjoyed it so much that I have just ordered this model. I had never heard of Copper State Models before watching this so I'm looking forward to it arriving and giving it a go myself.

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thank you so much for the comment, yeah, this kit is great, I'm sure you will enjoy building this model

Awesome!! man, I'm blown away. Keep up the GREAT job!

wow, odvedl jsi skvělou práci, chlapče. je to takový model, který je nyní potřeba odložit na polici nebo do Louvru. máš kytaru

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thank you, Tomasz, I think Louvre is too much for me, I will start from a local model show first ;-)

[@billgalloway1799]

Built the 1/48th float plane version a few years back. My first big venture into rigging. OMG it took me forever and I just could not manage turnbuckles in 1/48 I know some people can but it was just too much. Nice to be a subscriber and look forward to learning a lot. I have a Felixstowe planned for next year. Good help me. 5:12

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thank you Bill, it was a challenge for me too. I have Felix as well, it's going to a fun build for sure, good luck with yours😉

[@steves8482]

Wow! I swear that plane is mostly made of wire... I don't know how you find the patience to do this - it looks fantastic. I was really pleased with my only biplane model (a Bristol Fighter) until it spontaneously imploded under the tension of the rigging - god, that made me jump...

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thank Steve, I'm really glad that you liked it. After the project like this, that has a lot of rigging I like to build something more simple, so the next project will have much less rigging ;-)

[@derekrawlings1289]

Another amazing video. So inspirational. I’ve started my first WWI biplane and am so pleased that I found your channel. One question if I may? You often mention that you use the 0.6mm blue hypodermics, which have an inside diameter of 0.3mm. You then use 0.2mm nylon thread for the rigging wire and end up with two pieces of wire in each needle piece. How do they fit?

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thank you Derek, good luck with your WWi planes. Great question, I started to google the inside size and I found out that my needles have 1-1/4", which is 0.65mm, but on the label I have 0.6mm, the needle type is 23G. Same thing could be with the wire, it was 0.2mm on the label, but the actual size could be smaller.

[@llama1910]

An impressive build! Infact after watching the first two episodes, I was so impressed I bought one myself. Attaching the wing struts looks like a nightmare?

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thanks Don, no actually, it was pretty easy, you just need to attach the central ones (the blue one and central cabane struts), put the top wing and outside struts will be very easy to attach.

[@Marusija8]

❤❤❤

[@user-gd1mj8go7q]

Incredible skill and patience. Are the fits on the model as good as they look, or are they the result of a lot of dry fitting and adjustment by yourself?

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Thank you, Rob, the fitting is great, I used very little of sanding

[@stevewang7348]

Hi, for the small drill bit to make anchor holes, did you make a custom tiny drill bit from a hard wire and attached to a syringe for easier to turn in hand drill? Thank you for shatring these videos

[@FlyingCircusModels]

Hi Steve, no I just purchased some small drill bits and glued one into a medical needle

[@stevewang7348]

@@FlyingCircusModels can you share the website where you bought the tiny sized drill bits? Thank you 2 additional questions if I may. Did you try using monofilament fishing line for rigging and how did that compare to using thread? Interesting idea to cut a syringe needle for making turnbuckles. Do you find it easier to cut needles or 0.5mm brass tube, or about the same? Thank you for sharing your thoughts

[@FlyingCircusModels]

sure, I purchased mine from this website - www.micromark.com/search?keywords=drill and I haven't tried brass tube yet, because I had so many needles, that I brought with me to Canada, but I'm running out of them, so I may buy and try some in the future. About rigging, I received a package with EZline and I want to try it on my new project, so stay tuned for new videos ;-)

[@stevewang7348]

@@FlyingCircusModels I had experiment with EZ Line a while back in searching for a reliable rigging line for 1/48. Personally, I found EZ Line to be flimsy and stretchy, which made it very difficult to "thread" through the anchors and the turnbuckles...I have seen some modellers who just "glued" EZ Line to the anchor points, instead of looping through... That may appear less realistic. Look forward to see your new videos.... I have also tried this WildFire thermally bonded thread from Beadalon.... It appears to be more durable than the normal threads but it is challenging to be trim cleanly in tight spacing... Wondering if you may have tried this thread.

[@FlyingCircusModels]

No, I haven't tried this thread, sorry

[@paulmoore5401]

What is that copper wire gauge and where do you get it? Thanks,

[@FlyingCircusModels]

I usually use 0.2-3mm wires and I just bought a meter of electric wire (with yellow plastic cover) at a local hardware store, then removed cover and there you go - you have a lot of small copper wires
