For a GSW slow stick, what would be a combo? just curious on what a total price would be for this complete. I came up with $209.00. Not bad. thats assuming you already have a radio.
Let's see, I'm just guestimating from memory here, because I don't have my receipts in front of me. I just bought one a few months ago.
Plane -- $35
Receiver w/ crystal -- $40
Speed control -- $30
Battery 7cell NiMH -- $30
Servos (used standard size Futabas that I already had) -- Would have been about $25
Misc. Connectors for electrical parts -- $10
Total without charger -- $170
I went ahead and bought a Great Planes Triton charger which I got for about $80 after rebate. It charges everything, so I use it as a field charger for glow planes too. I also later bought a $30 lipo pack. Not quite as much power, but I can get a 20 minut flight in.
It's a fun plane to play with and I'm using it to teach my young son to fly. The only aerobatics it can do is a stall turn and loops, but it's still fun.
