Default Terminology question.

After reading the forums, I hear the term Slowstick thrown around quite alot.

To be honist, im not exactly sure what that means and was hoping someone could fill me in.

Thanks!

There are a number of different "stick" type airplanes. Pico stick, slow stick, ultra stick ect..
The stick part is the style of the airplane, in particular the fuselage. Slow is the particular airplane that is capable of very slow stable flight ( about 5 or 6 mph)
There may be other meanings but that is what I know.

It's a plane. Planes that have square fuses r refer'd to as sticks. Ultra stick, super stick, durastik ect. In this case, the slow stick.
