I always hear people asking about plans for this, but I never hear of anyone actually building one who posted anything on it.

Seems to me, everyone should have one (or something similar) for the club funflys. If your club is anything like the ones around me, then you'll want something you're not too afraid to crash!

There is the question of whether this is a scratch build forum topic or a kit build forum topic. I'm posting here because I'm starting mine with a short kit.

I had a Midwest Sweet Stick, but something went bad in the aileron connections and now I don't. This was supposed to be a .40 sized plane, but a modern OS .46AX was probably too much for it. You could still dead stick fine, but it apparently flew too fast for bellcranked ailerons on a single servo.
