I have a spad debonair and a stick 40 that I built. The stick needs a ton of aileron to fly straight, don't know why. I really don't care much for the way it flies. I love the spad. I can see that it's really all the plane I'll need for along time. My friend flew it and did all of the 3d stuff. I've done some myself but landings are still ...."interesting".
I'm buying a used Ultra Stick 120 with ST3000. I probably won't get it in the air before next spring, but my friend still thinks I'm crazy for buying it this soon. He says stick with the stick and spad, it's more than enough for the first couple of years, but I don't know, the plane is in excellant shape and I've seen one fly, so I said what the heck, go for it. Whatdayaguysthink? Too much, too soon. I'm impressed at how slow you can land the plane, my spad lands alot faster than the stick. It just looks easier to land and take off.
