Default RE: flying by myself? complete newb.



i tought myself to fly on a gws slowstick (ss), it tried a plane similar to the one you have, a gws estarter it was underpowered and faster than the SS</p>

heres the reason i love the ss.</p>

 you can fly it at a jogging pace. this thing gives you plenty of time to react. </p>

its a three channel so theirs less controls to get confused over.</p>

its not expensive (plane is only 21 bucks at tower, ) if you total the airframe its cheap to replace</p>

its durable, dispite its looks, and easy to repair. i have, landed in a tree, hit a chainlink fence, hit mutiple telephone poles (resulting in nose dive crashes from 20 ft high, ect this thing can take a beating and repair's well</p>

</p>

you already have tx, reciever,battery, and possible motor. only need servo's (maybe a motor)</p>

can you show me a pic of your motor and ill tell you if it will work (and prop sizes)</p>

if not their is a simple mod that i can explain/ walk you thouugh on mounting the motor to the plane</p>

i highly recommend this plane. </p>
