Black Horse Fieseler Fi156C Storch 2850mm (112.2″) Wingspan – ARF

Fieseler Fi156C Storch 2850mm (112.2″) Wingspan from Black Horse – Balsa Wood ARF – BHFS000

The Fieseler Fi 156 Storch (Stork) was a German liaison aircraft built by Fieseler before and during World War II. Production continued in other countries into the 1950s for the private market. It remains famous for its excellent STOL performance and low stall speed of 31 mph (50 kmph). French-built later variants are often seen at air shows today.

The model is scaled to approximately 1:5 and attention was paid to a true to original appearance and best flight characteristics. The model can be operated using an electric power system or with an internal combustion engine about 30-35cc displacement.
