The Stick is a classic for a lot of good reasons and one is versitility. On low rates, and balanced as the guys have described, its been used many times as a primary trainer. They are "groovy" that is they go where you point em . Also be careful with your landings they WON"T float all the way in like a trainer because of the wing shape differences. Use a click or two of power for a second before it settles to the ground or keep the airspeed slightly faster than the trainer on landing. Do a few fly bys up a little high and stall it to see how it reacts before landing other wise fly it like you stole it! If you do toast it and you probably will its the easiest bird to fix or scratch build a new one. I think it is hands down the best first scratch build and best second plane. good luck
