My latest Slow Stick creations.

[HappyRCFlyer]

I kept things simple this time, it's meant for easy to build out of foam or balsa only version and for those that want for a more sporty type of flying then the original GWS Slowstick version and my other variants I created based upon it's measurements.

The airfoil is fat which creates a decent amount of air displacement that helps to tame it down in the air, rather swimming in it type of thing.

Kit's for both the foam core wing based one and all balsa based ones at https://happyrcflyer.com/slow-stick-sport

This overall, a fun direction for me, neat to deal with simple lines and the rest like that for a relaxing change of pace being an advanced builder.

I'm showing the all stick and covering version without the aileron servo's and control horns in place.

Hey Happy RC,

Can you tell us what motor and esc you use for your slow stick ?

That would certainly be cool and easy to run the LED's through.

Hey Happy RC,

Can you tell us what motor and esc you use for your slow stick ?

2212 1400 and 30 amp esc is what was used on it, which is way more then enough power. I usually fly them at 1/4 - 1/3 throttle.

2212 is pretty BIG! I was thinking these were smaller!

I also use the 2208 size cans as well and I buy extra shafts to switch out when the original ones get bent. These are common for Park Flyer scale, my 250 scale/lines use a much smaller Emax motor.

I have a repeat customer do a request for a symmetrical airfoil on it so I designed them up last night. They are using the same parts as the original B version with the only difference being the width of the aileron seating section being slightly wider.

I also geared it up for the photo shoot along with.

I usually just send the tracking information once it's shipped, Paypal sends a notification upon receipt of funds when things are processed initially. The account runs under my main company, Espresso Outfitters, which is shown Happy RC Flyer being a division of from the website.
