    Help! Anyone own the 104" AJ Slick?

    Post your foamies you’re flying

    I just now pulled the trigger on a Freewing Avanti S PnP. Will be adding an Aura 8 to smooth it out for way low HS passes :). Got to admit these new foamy EDF designs are impressive. Way ahead of the HABU / E-flight stuff I used to fly.
