This is not really an Albatros DII, but the floatplane derivative of this type, the Albatros W.IV

Completed and weighing 14.0g without rubber. I had to make a balsa prop, because the platic one I was going to use made the plane too nose heavy. The plane is trimming really well, like the other 900 series kits I have built. It was quite easy to get it to circle a large gym twice for abouit a 25 sec flight.

A picture taken, from the Norseman, of the large pond on my cottage property (near Ottawa, Canada). The photo is from fall, 2008.

The Norseman taxis back to shore after a photo mission. The photo pod can be seen between the landing gear.

I thought my Norseman would feel more home on floats. The floats are balsa sheeted and were later covered with Aerokote Lite.

Because this is a low wing plane, I added quite a bit of washout (starboard) and washin (port). This keeps it from wanting to spiral in a tight turn.

I also chalked the domestic tissue to make it more opaque.

I have started to cover the model with tissue that has details printed on it from a laser printer. The advantage of a laser printer, compared to an inkjet printer, is that the color is completely water proof.

The supplied canopy was pretty disappointing which is unfortunate as this is really the most valuable part of the kit. It comes in 2 pieces that need to be glued on the center line. The plastic is also thick and heavy at 3.6g. I am going to form my own canopy.

I cut out the center of the plastic cowl and inserted a balsa disk. The disk has a photo of a Wright Cyclone glued to it.
