Default RE: Slow Stick or yard stick?


ORIGINAL: Dennis H.

Hi All, which one would be better for a AP? Yes I know bigger wing fly better.

Slow stick 46.3'' w/s yard stick 41''
I have never flown elec. before, I have read alot of post where people are using the Slow Stick, but nothing about the yard stick, The yard stick wings look stronger then the slow stick, what do you all think, and why this plane over the other?
And yes I know its all up to me, which one to get, Just like to get some in put, on the good and bads.
Thanks
Dennis


Slow Stick. Beef up the wings with CF rods to handle the load and you've got a good airplane. The Yard Stick unfortunately has a lot of plastic in places that break easily and frequently.

There's a reason that the Slow Stick has become the workhorse in beginner AP. It's easy to hack, it's easy to fix and it takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'.
