RE: want to get into rc planes.
Careful with the slow stick. That plane is so versitile you could end up with a fleet of them, each set up for a different task.
Indoor flying
Ourdoot slow flying
Aerobatic ( with ailerons cut in)
3D
Maybe even 4D
I have seen slow stick pylon races done in a gym.
There are very few airplanes as versitle, as modifyable and as universally enjoyed as the GWS Slow Stick.
Ithink they even sell a slope glider version.
