I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

ok. i will keep this one and see if i can change the receiver crystal for a channel 46. i ordered the battery and charger a couple days ago so they should be here soon. i decided to just wait until my birthday to open the battery and charger.

It won't. Don't open it. I would see if they will exchange it for the 30 (or vice versa, change the receiver crystal). In the mean time, I do have a spare ch 51 crystal that you can borrow, so you can fly now.

Jgood, yes mine was the smaller pico stick, lots of fun... but addictive.. I now have 4 planes flying and another 3 in kits to be built :-)

it looks like the esc that the gws site recommends uses the connector that my dad and i cut off because it did not fit in the esc on the picture. we threw the connectors out that came originally on the motor. maybe i will just go to the hobby shop and see what grumpy guy recommends. thanks for the help though. i feel like this sounds really confusing after reading through what i wrote, so i hope you understand. thanks

Rhys, the GWS site says you need an 8 A ESC. 2 A sounds a bit dodgy to me. Lots of places sell them, but I have one here (I assume it works OK) if you would like it. I also have a new receiver (a Berg one, one of the best manufacturers).

Rhysleo if the speed control you have is a 2amp and doing the jo keep it!You could always go up to a 10amp or even a 15amp for later on!The 46inch wing will defintly carry it!Iam using a 25amp in my jenny with a 300 brushless and a 3 cell 1700 mah eflight pack works fine.The motor stays cool and the pack stays cool.But I burned up a 180 brushed motor with this set up in one take off and had a 350 can motor with is brushmotor over heat with the same set up so I WENT TO BRUSHLES 300 to fix the problem.Then I had to strenthing the wings on the jenny to much power.Hope this helps.

james, what do you think?
rhysleo, Comment for image # 1307704 Jul 09 09:01
i think the model number says ICS50, but i'll post a picture just to be sure
jgood, Comment for image # 1307704 Jul 09 08:47
Reuben, I don't think they do a fuse version of the slow stick. Only the Pico stick. This is a bigger monster altogether! Rhys, what is the model number on that ESC?
rhysleo, Comment for image # 1307704 Jul 09 07:02
James, do you think I am going to need another speed controller as well as the receiver? You said that it might be to small for the motor.

Congrats on your flight, I learnt to fly with a slow stick (The full-fuse version) They are a lot of fun and a great first plane.
jgood, Comment for image # 1307703 Jul 09 17:19
The pack is a 1320mAh Thunderpower 2 cell. It's actually quite big, but the shear size of the Slowstick makes it look small.

no it doesn't unfortuanetly
