GWS Slow Stick
GWS Slow Stick
I am new to electric r/c flight. I have been flying glow for a little over a year and am currently flying a H9 .40 Ultra Stick.
I have just ordered a GWS Slow Stick from my LHS. What is the best battery pack to put in this plane. I would like to stick with nicad or nimh batteries. I am shooting for at least a 10 minute flight if possible.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

Battery
Use an 1100mah Nimh 6-cell pack. Be sure to upgrade to a 5amp GWS speed control or you'll burn up the 2amp.
I use the TPE brand pack and get 12+ minutes going at it hard and over 16 minutes just fooling around!
Also, clip your wingtips! It will fly better! See my post in this section for details.

Thanks C&B:
I thought that might be a good flight pack. Where is a good place to get such a flight pack? My LHS is just now starting to carry electrics, so he doesn't have much in the way of flight packs, especially nimh.
