First of all, this is not a toy. It's a real RC airplane even if some "snooty" RC guys make fun of it's foam construction! It's a real RC trainer and an inexpensive way to get into RC flying. It's a fun build and I'm sure you will enjoy it very much.

This kit is an excellent kit, well designed and everything fits together like it's supposed to. It arrived well packaged and in excellent condition. As well, you cannot beat the price for a real RC trainer either. It's an excellent first time RC trainer plane.

It is educational in the sense that it is an excellent platform for learning to build and fly RC airplanes. Durable? That's not really a factor to rate this airplane on. It is a trainer, it will crash and it will break just like any RC aircraft trainer will so it's not fair to judge it on it's durability or lack of durability. However, I went ahead and rated it at 3 stars for durability because it is is a slow flyer and that means more chance of...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Slow Stick is "remote control aircraft 101", September 20, 2011

This review is from: Slow Stick ARF with 400C/BB (Toy)
The GWS Slow Stick is NOT a "toy" - it is a real, flying, remote control airplane, targeting beginners (beginner modellers and beginner fliers).
1. It does not include the expensive electrics (servos, receiver, transmitter, flight battery, speed controller) (and in the NPS version excludes also the motor). You need to read-up / enquire from other modellers what you need here, or ask at your local hobby shop, check auction sites and small ads, etc.
2. The instructions are either "poor" (if you expect them to lead you to perfect flight) or "sufficient" (if you expect to have to learn). Here is a small hint: check out the comprehensive threads on this model at internet forums like rcgroups' "Beginners" section.
3. The plane flies really well.... *especially* if you know how to fly! And this is a very forgiving plane if you don't know how to fly. There will be a learning curve, and it's likely you will sometimes crash. Typically in learning you should find someone to...Read more

This package is for the air vehicle, the motor with gear reduction box and prop, no electronics included. The plane went together rather easily. However, after adding all my electronics and battery, it was rather difficult to balance the full-up aircraft. It comes with an "I" beam fuselage and plastic sections which slide along the "I" beam. The plastic sections are for mounting the wing (front and rear attachments), the battery pack (front and rear attachments), the servos, and the tail wheel. The recommended construction is to mount the battery pack aft of the wing mounts. In this configuration, a lot of ballast weight had to be added to the front "I" beam. I moved the battery pack attachments forward of the wing (the wing has a fixed position along the "I" beam) and only had to add a small amount of ballast to the tail to bring the aircraft into balance. You can't put the battery pack where it really wants to go under the wing because the wing mounts are in the way...Read more
