RE: Need a new stick!
I have the ModelTech Lucky Stick (same as the Sport Stick, but with a high wing). I bought it as a cheap knock-around plane. It QUICKLY became my favorite aiplane to fly. It flys fast, rolls fast, lands great, loops great etc...I sanded the dihedral out of the wing and converted it to a taildragger. With a foam core wing, this plane is REALLY tough. I had a magnum .46 xls in it and it just screamed. I just put a magnum 52 xls and it just got better. Unlimited vert w/ a 10x7 prop. It's my "go to" airplane when it's windy out too!
I can't count the number of comments i have rec'd on this plane's performance. It's a real winner
All said and done, it's an awesome airplane. I got it when it was on sale for $70
