Michael's Slow Stick Wing Reinforcement Braces
Here is a nifty mod that everyone should have especially those of us who "pull up" a little to roughly in an emergency and/or our limited aerobatics that the GWS Slow Stick Park Flyer EP ARF is capable of doing get out of control.
Michael's Slow Stick Wing Reinforcement Braces are produced by Michael Berger the same gentleman who started the Ultimate Slow Stick thread I posted about.
A short snippit of his page follows:
This is a reinforcing brace for the GWS Slow Stick wing to replace the provided brace made of aluminum. The provided dihedral brace is weak, and looses it's strength, fatiguing and becoming useless after any force is applied to it in flight. This may happen after a while of regular flying, or multiple loops, strong pull-outs from a dive, or any other such aggressive flying. If you have any upgraded motor, or the stock motor on more than 7 cells, then your provided dihedral braces will ware out soon. When this happens, the brace becomes completely useless, and the wing becomes very weak. The next time you pull up violently, the wing panels will bend upward, and if the enough stress is pulled onto the wings, they will bend upward violently enough so that the tips nearly touch above the fuselage, and the wing will snap at the center. This is called folding.
Great Job Michael.. Tnx for providing a nifty little mod for the beloved Slow Stick
