Scale-like sprung landing gear for off-runway landings with Simple Storch

I set this landing gear up on my Storch and it transformed the whole STOL flying experience. It's made up of some old springs I had lying around, 2mm and 4mm carbon rod and tube, zip ties, vinyl tubing, and few strategically designed 3d printed parts. Weighs MUCH less than the stock metal wire gear. The bush wheels are large pool noodle sections on cork hubs.
