RE: GP Big Stik 60
Glad to hear it, Hybridcrx! The Great Planes Big Stik .60 is easy building and very well designed. It will provide you with a lot of fun for as many years as you choose to keep flying it.
They slow down and land like a trainer, but they're aerobatic enough that you can fly the entire Sportsman pattern routine with one. I've seen several of them with floats on them that were used for taking off and landing on the lake, too.
Stiks have an elegant simplicity to them that make them enjoyable to fly and own.
