An excellent tutorial, thank you for this video. You mentioned once or twice, "All you need is patience". Well, yes, but perhaps I'd modify that to say "a lot of patience" ;) As always, it's a joy to see your beautiful models as they are being constructed. Cheers.
Excellent video on rigging. Although I have been modelling for 50 years I am only now looking at WW1 aircraft and this tutorial makes it look so easy. Thank you.
Thank you so much Leonardus, I think that sooner or later every modeller comes to the point that they want to make one of WW1 plane, because they are awesome!!! it took about 10 years for me to understand that these type of the planes are my passion. Good luck with your future projects!!!
Thank you Thomas, sure you need to try, only one thing, I started to use brass tubes, instead of medical needles and it's easier and faster to cut them
Thank you....terrific tutorial and very apt for any modeller of biplanes. Your technique is simple but effective and the way you manage to do the rigging seems so effortless. Obviously practice makes it easier. Will be waiting for the next notification bell to see what next is in store.
Awesome video! I not long ago picked up GasPatch metal anchor points, Albion Alloys Ltd turnbuckles and Infinity Model's fine and medium black rigging all for 1/48 and 1/32! Keep up with the phenomenal and inspirational work....🤜🏻🤛🏻🍻
I wish that Roden would do more WWI aircraft in both 1/32 and 1/48....I think that I'll get some of their 1/48 Fokker D.VII to practice on....only have Eduard and a couple of others so far!
Thank yo so much, Nikki. Actually, i tried brass tube on my Strutter project and they are much better in work, so if you can - buy 0.4-0.6-0.8mm brass tubes, if you can't - needles is a good option
You've included rigging in your previous videos. However it is very kind of you to make a separate video (takes a lot of time, ey?). So when time comes for another biplane, I shall just look here. And of course: wonderful work! Thank you.
Thank you Rafael, there was a comment under one of my videos and I was asked to make this "How to", so I decided it will be useful to have the rigging process as a separate video.
Thank you for sharing your skills and expertise. I have never tried to do this to a model but I think that you have made it something that is less terrifying than it was before. Larry Landis
I have some beautiful kits to experiment with and the aircraft of World War 1 have a special place in history. Forty years ago I read The History of Air Fighting. Now I'm re reading the book again.
Thank you so much for your video explaining how you rig your aircraft. I think many modellers who might be interested in building WW1 aircraft find the rigging process too daunting so just don’t try. Hopefully your video will encourage more people to build these beautiful planes. Have you built any of the Copper State Models aircraft yet?
Thanks Craig, I believe that rigging is not too complicated process, but that's true it scares modelers. I haven't built them yet, however I already bought their new Caudron, so will have this experience soon (not next project, but hope this year)
Thank you for your amazing videos! I am going to attempt building WWI planes again after a 20 year hiatus. Your rigging technique has given me the confidence.... been practicing on scrap sprues and it works beautifully BTW, do you prefer thick or thin CA glue for rigging?
Thank you, Fred, good luck with your builds, I'm sure your hands will remember - how to assemble :-) I prefer thin glue, because it can squeeze in to the tube easier
Thank you for this interesting video. I will need it for my first biplane kit (Meng Fokker Dr.I). Can I as you about the drill (@1:52) you use. Is this something home made or can it be purchased? And if yes, how is it made or where can it be bought?
Sorry for the late response, this drill bit is a home made one, I just glued a small 0.4mm, 0.6mm, 0.8mm (I have a lot of them) drill in to a medical needle using a superglue. Good luck with your project
I'm using a black nylon beading thread, it's "no name", I purchased it many years ago in a craft shop, so I don't know the brand name, it's 0.3mm in diameter
Use in wondering, Around the corner, Walking on thin air, Garret Bevins - Infinite, Louvre - that's all tracks I used in that video. I do not know the names of musicians, except Garret Bevins, sorry
Excellent review of biplane rigging parts, and the instructions on how to use/install them. Thank you.
You're very welcome, hope this will help you with your WW1 projects

Thanks Mark, also I noticed that doing rigging is some kind of meditation for me.

Incredible. A superb tutorial and a work of art. I want to try it soon. Thank you.

Thank you so much for the feedback!
Very useful guide, good point about following a procedure when rigging the wings. I prefer 1/48 turn buckles for many 1/32 scale builds too.
Thank you, Stephen
Excellent tutorial on rigging. I’ve saved it for future reference. Many thanks, your work is inspiring.
You're more than welcome, Ronald
I love the way you do your rigging. Looking forward to more videos....
thanks
Very precise job. So small parts looks like real parts of real plane! Thanks for video.
Thanks Serhii, дякую!!!
Such a clever way of doing what is a difficult job. Well done sir and best wishes Vic.
Thank Vic, I believe that with this technique a difficult job becomes a simple one
Very illuminating. Exquisite detail. Agree about 1/48 resin turnbuckles in place of 1/32 Albatros (WNW) as a scale matter.
Thanks, yes in my opinion 1/32 turnbuckles/anchor points are way too big, they are more like 1/24
Awesome video!
I not long ago picked up GasPatch metal anchor points, Albion Alloys Ltd turnbuckles and Infinity Model's fine and medium black rigging all for 1/48 and 1/32!
Keep up with the phenomenal and inspirational work....🤜🏻🤛🏻🍻

@@FlyingCircusModels
You're very much welcome! 🤜🏻🤛🏻🍻
I really hoped that Roden would buy all WnW molds when they closed, but it was too expensive for them, so it went to China
@@FlyingCircusModels
That would have been something....looking forward to see what they'll do in the future, Roden, ICM and others....🤞🏻
I learned a lot about rigging a WW1 model, now I look forward to trying this myself. =)
Good luck with your build, it's not so hard as it may look ;-)
Beautiful work FCM, thank you for sharing your technique
you're very welcome, Phil
Amazing stuff. I learned something new everyday.
Thank you, David
Great presentation.
great video thanks for sharing!
Thanks
Excellent starting points and tips. Im going to try the surgical needle trick.
Thank yo so much, Nikki. Actually, i tried brass tube on my Strutter project and they are much better in work, so if you can - buy 0.4-0.6-0.8mm brass tubes, if you can't - needles is a good option
@@FlyingCircusModels Great insight. Thank you so much.
Thanks!

You are welcome Larry, hope you will not scare to do the rigging, after watching my video

Impressive attention to detail
Thank you so much
Absolutely amazing! Congrats from Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.
Thank you Fabio

Looks like easy and simple process) I will try it on my first 48 biplane Pfalz D. XII early
Liked and Subscribed, Thank you.
Thank you so much, it's really not so complicated process as it may look like, good luck with your Pfalz
Well done thank you for the tutorial.

Wonderful video. Is that a Thomas Morse Scout I see at 0:07 ?
thank you John, it might be
Too advanced for my skill level. Thanks.

@@FlyingCircusModels Thank you, great idea, sometimes there are still simple and cheap tools.
Exactly, just use your imagination ))
Can you tell me again where you look at plans of the real planes ? I have trouble understanding it when you talk about it. Great tutorial !
Hi, I try to search in Windsock datafiles first, there a lot of different planes covered in that magazine.
And what about use of acupuncture needles? Some have 0,2 mm in diameter.
I think they are way too small for 1/32 scale, you may use them for 1/72, but not sure if thread will go through
What type of thread do you use? Is it waxed or something?
I'm using a black nylon beading thread, it's "no name", I purchased it many years ago in a craft shop, so I don't know the brand name, it's 0.3mm in diameter
whgat music did you use?
just a free youtube music, do want to know the specific name?
@@FlyingCircusModels Yes, I would! Thank you
Use in wondering, Around the corner, Walking on thin air, Garret Bevins - Infinite, Louvre - that's all tracks I used in that video. I do not know the names of musicians, except Garret Bevins, sorry
@@FlyingCircusModels It's all good I appreciate you
