I really learned to fly on a Little Stik. The bigger they get the better they seem to fly. I like the 40 size just because they are a little easier to transport. Here is picture of my new Sweet Stik built from plans. If its calm this weekend I will get to do the first flight. The first RC model I saw was an Ugly Stik covered in transparent red with the traditional color scheme. I thought it was the coolest thing I had ever seen. And it was not ugly at all in my eyes. This is my favorite youtube vid of a Big Stik being flown. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1R30U3qpFs
