Mark Hamrick (guitarlute101) has built the Wingnut Wings 1:32 scale LVG C.VI almost out of the box and the result is quite spectacular. In the article he also explains how he did to achieve such a realistic rigging on such a big scale model.

This is the kind of thing I love this site for. I know you have heard it before, Mark, but that was a great build.
