homer23,

I saw in a previous post that you're concerned about the difficulty with putting a Slow Stick together. I wouldn't say it is hard. If you're taking your time, it might take 4 hours tops. Like any aircraft though, unless you pull it out of the box ready to fly, you have to have a bit of patience to make sure that the plane gets put together right. Better to take your time and have a good flying plane than rushing through and getting discouraged because the damn thing doesn't fly right.

There is one thing going for the Slow Stick and that it's been around for a while, many people fly them, and you are sure to get tons of help whenever you need it just by asking here.

I don't know much about the Slo-V, but by the looks of it, it will fly a lot like the Slow Stick. I'm also guessing that there is hardly such a thing as a 'perfect' plane. What you might want to ask Slo-V owners is what they see as the strengths and weaknesses of the design.

I fly a Slow Stick and am quite happy with it. I was worried about getting it together right too, but now, it was a lot of fuss about nothing, really. It was more about being unsure about what to do because I've never done it before.

Anyway, good luck in your decision. I'm sure whatever you get, you'll have a blast.

And if you have ANY questions at all once you open the box and get ready to assemble, just ask.
