Default gws slow stick

Your standard size equipment will work fine on the Slow Stick. I am using an Airtronics 4G with standard receiver and servos on mine with a six cell 900 mah nimh pack. All up weight is 20 oz. which is about 5 oz. over what most are doing with mini equipment.

Even at this weight it will r.o.g. in about 20ft and loop from level flight on a fresh charge. It cruises easily at 2/3 throttle and I get 12 min. flights.

When the wind kicks up the extra weight provides stability and you don't get blown around so much.

The Slow Stick can carry an amazing amount of weight and there is no easier plane to fly.

Have fun.
