RE: Need Help on Bipe Struts
You've never really had any fun at all until youv'e got WWI bipes. Monoplanes also require much attaching and detaching of bracng wires. For example look at the cabane struts on a Fokker D-VII, and the interplanes are N shaped as well. At least it doesn't have interplane wire braces such as a Sopwith Pup or a Camel. Even the Fokker E-III has enough wires on it to make a fence. There's an old saying that supposedly came from WWI mechanics. "Rig the wires and throw in a pigeon. If it gets out there's a wire missing somewhere". In any case it's still a rewarding exercise to see the old ones fly in their stately manner instead of something screaming around the sky as if it were looking for the next pylon.
