I know it's not as shiny or neat as many of the excellent offerings shared on this site, but I'd like to show my Supercub fiesler 'storch', based on the WW2 german recon plane. It's a quick and dirty paint job, but I hope it's a little different. Had my plane for 10 days now, 6 flights and no crashes so far!     Hope you like it! |

nice, not clean n' cut, but It has that "militaryish" look (<--whatever that means  lol, but it does look quite nice, matted... could go for some bigger wheels though  |

First, I'd like to say that the Fieseler Fi 156 Storch was an UGLY piece of German crap! lol Something which the PA18 is NOT That said, I love the landing gear! Great job with that! The paint not-so-much but it does make for a horrible experience trying to find it in the bush after a crash landing Legot: The stock SC wheels are actually TOO BIG if he's going for the Fieseler Storch look; that airplane used very tiny wheels: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Fieseler_Fi_156_Storch.jpg |

That's a nice looking cub, I particularly like the landing gear mod. I hope you never loose it in a wooded area though, you'll never be able to find it again!

Nope, Flat area where I fly. Flies just fine, Still no crashes (touch wood!), landing gear fine.
Just recieved 2 1500Mah lipos, so thats my next change. All goes well (and my new trainer works OK), then the aileron mod is next. Still early days, but I'm kinda confident.
Thanks for all the repies, I appriciate them!
