FPV Slow Stick

Here’s a quick look at the newest plane in my FPV fleet. It’s a basic GWS Slow Stick with a few mods besides the FPV gear. Those consist of slightly heavier landing gear wire than stock, Dubro wheels, and ailerons. It also has a lite ply battery tray from Radical R/C.

Equipment used:

• Tower Pro 9g servos for rudder, elevator, and camera pan
• HXT500 5g servos for camera tilt and ailerons
• Exceed R/C Alpha 400 28-30 740kv motor
• 11×4.7 Slow Fly prop (I use both APC and GWS)
• Hobby King simple series 25/30 ESC
• FrSky DHR-II receiver w/telemetry
• FlyTron’s telemetry screen and voltage sensors
• PZ0420 600TVL Sony camera
• Fiberglass pan/tilt mount from HobbyKing
• 1.28GHz 300mW vTX from Ready Made R/C
• Common Mode LC filter from Ready Made R/C (for powering FPV gear off the main battery)
• Lumifly nav. lights from Hobby King for flying late after sunset
• I run 3-cell 2200mAh LiPos for 20-30 minute flights
