| Storch is a very beautiful airplane, and beautifully floats in the air. |

This Storch is a little nose heavy, balancing just past he leading edge. I'll try flying it like this before adding tail weight. |

The landing gear have a somewhat realistic motion - An aluminium tube in the fake Oleo allows the carbon fiber rod attached to the wing root, to retract. |

Leading edge slats are installed. I built them from a lamination of 2 1/32 sheets and then sanded to an airfoil shape. |

| FLYBOYZ: If you build the Cherokee with the stock balsa, the E-Flite 180 won't be too much power. |

I am building the Storch for indoor R/C and estimate all-up-weight of under 100g (3.6 oz) . The little E-Flite 180 motor will be way too much power, but it fits nicely. The Aeronavale roundels are simply paper printed with an inkjet. A generous amount of glue stick softens the paper to conform nicely to the tissue. The rudder has white tissue printed with an inkjet printer. |

It was a bit of a pain to cover the parts where the outer panels meet the upper window. In some cases I needed tweezers to pull the tissue in place. I will also be adding extended slats. |

A Dumas, Not a Guillow's Storch. I am covering it with blue tissue, chalked with black. It will have a post war Aeronavale (French Navy Air Arm) paint scheme. I won't be using much paint, however. The cowl here is covered with many bits of blue tissue. |
