Fokker DVII OAW Die sieben Schwaben

[jknaus]

Well got the cockpit pretty much done. Just need to add a throttle linkage I think and it will be good. Not sure why I bothered putting cables to the controls as you can barely see them. The thread from the back of the triggers on the joystick are looped around the ammo feed until the guns go in, then I will hook them up to the guns. Comments, critiques please.

Again thanks everyone.
Well finally got some bench time yesterday and early this morning. Started wiring the engine and got the fuse together ready to start painting.

Unfortunately the wiring does not show well in my pics, but the distributers are done. Got 1 cylinder done before I couldnt hold the tweezers anymore. I added some control rods from the throttle etc, but you can even really see them. Oh well.
Comments and critiques welcome.

Amazing work there james!

 

[jknaus]

I guess maybe a bit more detail shows here.

The right hand distributer wiring is a bit unruly, but nothing I can do about it.
