I just down loaded and started flying the Slow Ride. I reminds me the Grumman Agcats I use to fly in an earlier life. We use to call them "Drag Cats". The saying went "Carry a brick along and in the event of an engine failure throw the brick out and follow it down to your landing spot". At 600 HP they were pretty powerful and flew much like the Slow Ride.

That reminds me of an old X-navy instructor I had years ago that told us, "if making an emergency landing at night, just before touchdown turn on your landing lights, if you don't like what you see, turn them off."

I downloaded the Monsoon and the Slow ride, hooked on the two, I think I prefer the monsoon, no Slow Ride, monsoon, slow ride, ah what the hell they are both gr8.

Slow ride is kicking ... love it.

Seemed to be the preferred plane at Toledo in our booth too.

Is there any 3-D flyer that hovers anywhere near as easily as the Monsoon? After struggling for several hours attempting to hover simulator shockies, extras, etc. I was able to hover the Monsoon almost from the first attempt. It seems so much easier than any other simulator model I've ever tried. Perhaps it makes a good stepping stone to the more difficult models.

Anyway......... I'd love to have a real like bird that few nearly as well as the Monsoon.

Hey! STLPilot, why don't you order a container full of SLowrides and Monsoons and sell them to all us guys?

Can someone mail me the files for the monsoon and slowride ?
I own Aerofly Pro, not the deluxe version.
When I download them from the german site, they are .exe files that don't install.

Thanks in advance

Then maybe you should buy one! www.slow-flyer.com

I've already contacted them. Seems to be a waiting list for all their planes. Wonder why?????

extra flyer: Go to the rc-sims site and find the forum about AFPD airplanes for AFP. It will explain all about it there.

I've heard some people say that there is no way the Slow Ride can fly that slow as on the sim ... but if you don't think the Slow Ride flies as slow on the sim as it does in real life ... this video will prove you wrong.

Man that slow ride is a great plane can you buy the kit in the USA?

Not yet .... working on it!

I DLed the Monsoon (both versions) and love it. However, I started messing with it to increase the wing loading for a more typical 3D plane (about 7 oz per sq ft) and tweaked the CG some back and more centered on the vertical.

Now not only will it hover with ease but will torque rolls HANDS OFF in either direction! Don't know if I accidently got the values just right but would love to share it with others. Since everything else is stock, is there just one file that has my changes that I can upload or email to anyone interested that can be put in the folder?

I just received my slow ride kit from Slow-flyer.com. It took about 4-5 weeks for it to get here. Now I just have to figure out how to build it. Since it was a prerelease kit there are no instructions. It doesn't look to bad except I don't know any of the critical measurements. The wing Location and stab height are not marked on the Fuselage. No reply from [email protected] yet. Any body have any ideas?

I ordered it from Slow-flyer.com. I'll let you know how the build goes. Not much info and instructions.

The "SLOW"Rider is so slow, that you can walk with him like a dog ( it's also cleaner)[&:]

Do you have any information on how to build it?

intheclouds: I know exactly what to do with it. Don't touch it. Put it in the mail directly to me. I'll sort it out and get back to you........
I hope you do get it sorted and report back. I didn't even know they were available. I want to get one too before the indoor season gets here.

I liked how the Slow-Ride flew so much, I couldn't wait for one so designed my own (sort-of)
