RE: big stick
for front yard fun I had a Model Tech Magic, and an OS .40 FP 11x4 APC
set it up for Flap-ailerons
.40 FP is very light compared to a Ball-bearing motor and enough power for plenty of fun
huge wing, large control surfaces, lightly wing loaded
.46FX AX for great vertical proformance
a Stik will need at least twice the runway length
.02 worth from bob
