The reason you couldn’t take it off from the grass was because you should have used the rudder

I use plastic linkages on all my models. Just glue them in. Foam compresses and makes all those links loose. Also use one tiny drop of blue locktite on linkage stops.

you should build my foaMWARI ... no broken props

Hey if you are still online. may i know what motor have you used? is it 2212? And the prop size?

Keep in mind that RC planes + kids in close proximity as not a good combo.

have the wing done in black paper foam, fuselage cut out and ready to start assembly, defiantly going with full controls and leading edge slats, have finished the Bushwacker cut from plans ready for maiden,

I never had one problem with the Storch. It's hard to mess up honestly.

Kinda like what I'm going through with my FT Simple Cub. I really believe that FT should have an option to get there kits with a motor having a 3mm shaft and prop saver collet with "O" rings..

i think im in this video

Thanks, Mike! I've built an FT Explorer and a Simple Scout. I'd like to build an FT Storch for the slow flying. I appreciate your tips

How much did this plane weigh? I'm trying to fly my own, but it's having trouble lifting.

why did you not check the CG before start? (2 inches / 5 cm from leading edge of the wing) I checked it a couple of times and the storch flyes soooo damn good!

CG? Looks tail heavy. Also, if launching from hand use your left to throw so you can have your right on the ailerons

Pulling to the left, that's was a rudder is for.

Have you consider add a slat to the wing, to check if this solve the problem?

Thanks for that. I'm trying to get a FT Storch going myself. Haven't Maidened yet, but this was valuable!!

They seems to be tail heavy....

Are those the HQ props from flitetest? They do seem to break pretty easy sometimes.
