I have built 2 "Slowpokes", 1 as the 3 channel as designed, and the other with ailerons. Both were powered with the O.S. 26 4 stroke engine. Regarding the aileron version, I changed the wing design considerably by duplicating the root end ribs and maintaining the wing shape from root to tip. Wing tips were carved from a solid piece of balsa. The center section was shortened and the dehydral (or is it polyhedral?) was reduced to 1-1/2" if memory serves. The aileron servos were built into the wing similar to most modern wing designs. In summary, when completed, the wing was built so that it was very similar to the wing design of the "Slowpoke 40". It's a very good flier and will perform basic aerobatics, but keep in mind it is slower than a lot of planes on the market, in other words a slowpoke (LOL). There is considerable extra work in changing the wing, but for me, it was worth the effort.

I prefer it over the 3 channel. The 3 channel did fly well as designed, but IMO the wing was a little fragile at the tips.
