Yeah that too.......I also fly at a small field so the 40 would probably be the better option for me. I know the big stick 60 has flaps but i dont think the 40 does. Does anyone think that flaps for a second plane would be a bit much?
Thanks,

The Big Stik 40 & 60 do not have flaps. They have full span ailerons. The Hangar 9 Ultra Sticks (40 & 60) have the option of full span ailerons or flaps & ailerons.
My brother had a Big Stik 40 for several years. It was a super plane. He crashed it a couple of years ago. He replaced it with an Ultra Stick 40 because it had the flaps option and he wanted to play with "crow" mixing. He got bored with crow after a few flights, and the roll rate was not great with small ailerons, so he reprogrammed the radio to make the flaps function as ailerons.
Unless you just "want" flaps as a new toy to play with, they are not needed on any 'Stick.'
