re STICK planes: I have never built a "Stick" but have flown many. They are excelent inverted flyers in that they have a totally symetrical wing and if built the way I like'em, a flat wing. They are pretty much a box and wing. A good choice. BEWARE of aileron flutter on "Sticks". Some have the ailerons extending beyond the tip of the wing...sort of flaired to the outsede. If it has this, change it so there is a piece of the aileron stock cememted to the rear of the wing tip and have the true aileron start a few inches inboard of that. This should help if you are like me and want a real cookin' engine up front. Remember, always seal the hinge gap! ---Sean--- seanm@terapin.com
