Peter Y: I have Slowpoke 40 ARF w/.50 Saito 4-stroke. I'm relatively new to RC. Started with Hanger 9 Extra Easy, which I'm still flying. Have only flown, and landed, the Slowpoke 3 times. Love it. Just seems to float gently into a slow landing. Had to add 3 oz. Higley nose spinner PLUS 5 oz. at the servo compartment bulkhead to meet the recommended CG. Poke is stored for the winter up north, but I look forward to flying it regularly when I return. Now in Florida for winter and have just completed assembly of Hanger 9 Ultra Stick, powered with .72 Saito, which I've not yet flown. Also have Piper J-3 Cub ARF almost completed up north. The period appearance of the Poke, and its ability to just ' laze ' around the sky is a delight. I think you'll like it but you might want to go over it thoroughly, beefing up with a little epoxy and basswood where needed. If you can obtain building manual, I think you will find it helpful. If I can assist in any way, please don't hesitate to contact me via e-mail : [email protected]
