Very nice work on the wood panels and the Lozenge pattern. All decals I assume?

She's a beaut.  One error, you have both ailerons drooping, one should have been up.

Really nice! Yes Sure do like the wing pattern, never saw that before.

That looks like a fun airplane to jump into and fly. I don't get that reaction to many airplanes anymore.

Very nice build of a cool, brutish looking late war German scout!

The real thing had an unusual geared engine that turned opposite to the prop rotation to cancel torque.  This apparently was the source of a number of mechanical failures.  Most rotary engines of the day were actually bolted to the prop and the whole kit-n-kaboodle spun around a fixed shaft, in order to circulate oil to all the cylinders.
