Like you, I watch the bigger Youtube channels like Matt (Rag The Nuts Off), Chris (iForce2d), Jon (Discover RC), and Andrew Newton. Then I buy that plane they've reviewed. In this case I was sold on a HobbyKing Durafly Slowpoke by watching Jeff (7DEMO7) and my two fave Slovenian brothers Robert and Blaz. Why? First off, and I know this is a very womanly response, it's CUTE! LOL! Build was easy as pie. Mine did not come with the decorative wire struts but within a week I had them in hand. Good job on that HK support! I flew this on a 4s 2200 Graphene which might have been too much as the ESC was very hot at the end. How did it fly? A little bit funny to tell the truth. It's going to take some tweaking. This is not a trainer. Recommended for Intermediate and above pilots. Crappy landing but no crashes and it is still way cute!
