RE: Need a new stick!
yes,...but i believe the best stik's ever made were old midwest "sweet stik's". very popular back in the early and mid 1980's....but they were kits not arfs. they made excellent 2nd planes after you learned on trainers. they had a 52" inch wingspan with no dihedral. once you mastered the 'sweet stik' you could fly about any sport plane. sometime ago hanger 9 came out with a arf stik (not the ultra stik) that had the same spec's as the old sweet stik but it was heavy and did not fly as good as the midwest stik.
