I started out my Wingut Wings experience asking: "Are they really worth it?" Having now completed the Fokker E.IV, the big question is: after building my first Wingnut Wings kit, would I buy and build another? The answer is in this video.
There's also some (pretty damn rudimentary!) video magic where a blueprint comes to life. I'm rather chuffed with the old-timey look I achieved with this entirely fabricated engineering plan - please don't contact me to tell me the German is incorrect and it actually refers to a plumbing blueprint or plans for a lederhosen-making machine or something! It is entirely made up, although the three-section view of the Fokker itself is correctly drawn.

I also finally corrected the anhedral problem with the wings. All in all, this was an eye-opening and game-changing build for me.
Video is embedded below, but in case that doesn't work here is the link:
