Default RE: Crashed my first flight

Chasni, I would recommend getting the regular Slow Stick (click here) as opposed to the Pico Stick. The Slow Stick has larger wing span (46.3 inches, Pico Stick has 41.3 inches) and a much larger wing area (505 square inches, Pico Stick has 237 square inches). Also from the pictures it would appear that the Slow Stick has much more dihedral than the Pico Stick. A of this means that the Slow Stick will be more stable in the air and easier to fly. I have a Slow Stick and once in the air and trimmed right, as Bonified Wingnut said, it will fly hands off.
