After a learning exercise (a Fokker Eindekker) this is my first proper build in FSDSv3, a Gotha G.IV bomber. WIP obviously, it still needs little details added (engines, wheels, rudder, crew etc). Plenty more to learn yet but I'm having fun with it Grin

Progress report

The Gotha now has a bit of cockpit detail, not sure how far I'll go with this since there aren't many G.IV cockpit reference photos to be found!

And it now has a rudder as well Grin

Have a look here, only small photos of a model, but it seems pretty detailed.

Thanks, I hadn't seen that before. A couple of years ago I was going to build a R/C model of this plane, about 72" span. I gathered my reference material but had to abandon the project because I simply don't have anywhere to put a model that big!

Sort of looks like a military version of the Vicker Vimmy.
