Hi
Last year i came across a partly build Svensson Storch, at the time i was framing up my Newman Storch and i belived that ths Svenson could be a good "trainer" for the larger Newman (building and flying).
I soon realised that a lot of parts where missing, so i have spend a few more hours then i was planning on, but i do like the end result.
The colours are from Holloways Storch based at Old Warden in England, power is a Laser 120. Scale is 1/6.

Viggo, What make and size prop are you running on your Laser 120?

Very nicely built Viggo and an outstanding first flight. Best of luck with it in the future and with your larger Newman Storch as well.

Very nice Storch Viggo. First flight video was also excellent and the wing light looked very useful in the low light conditions.
I too have a Svenson kit still in the box that I aquired many years ago whilst I was building this Storch from a set of Sid Morgan plans. Its the same size as the Svenson and flys nicely on a Laser 100.
The Svenson kit is extremely rare these days, I wonder what I could sell it for?
Best of luck with your Newman Storch Viggo. Judging by this post you will do Eddie proud.
