GREAT PLANES SLOWPOKE 40

THIS IS THE GREAT PLANES SLOWPOKE 40. IT WAS THE THIRD RC KIT THAT I BUILT. VERY NICE BUILDING KIT. I ENDED UP TRADING THIS PLANE FOR TWO US41 GAS ENGINES. WHEN I TRADED THE SLOWPOKE 40 IT HAD A K&B 65 ON IT. IT WAS WAY OVERPOWERED AND CAPABLE OF SOME PRETTY NEAT MANUEVERS. THE NEW OWNER UNFORTUNATLY GAVE IT A DIRT BATH WHILE HE WAS DOING SLOW AND LOW ROLLS. R.I.P. SLOWPOKE 40. I JUST STARTED BUILDING NOT ONE, BUT TWO NEW SLOWPOKES 40's. THE KIT IS INEXPENSIVE, $60 WITH SHIPPING TO MY HOUSE. I DECIDED THAT SINCE I ALREADY HAD A SET OF PLANS FOR THE SLOWPOKE THAT I'D BUILD TWO SLOWPOKES AT THE SAME TIME. PRETTY NEAT WAY TO DO IT. I'LL POST PICTURES AS SOON AS I GET THE PLANES "IN THE BONES" AND READY TO COVER.
