Yes, We will be bringing back the Slow Stick, maybe as soon as February. Our hang up is space, we don't have any right now. We will be doubling our space in February, maybe a little sooner if the neighbor moves out quicker. Our goal will be to have the container full of Slow Sticks arrive about the same day we get the keys. :)

We are also looking at bringing back the Formosa and Tiger Moth 400 from GWS. They are also wonderful aircraft.

Sorry, no idea yet. Goal is to keep them as low as we can. Doesn't make much sense if they are expensive.

We might have some of the newer style plastic wing braces.. Yep, we have a lot of the plastic braces if you want to use that.

Sorry now word. GWS is trying to locate all of their tooling and contacting the sub contractors. Seems this will take longer than expected.

I don’t know if a container full is enough. I want at least 3 and a lot of my friends will want one too!

We should have the planes in 3 months. We will be getting in around 3000 units on this first order.

As a side note, we did find some micro slow sticks. They are just as much fun IMHO. They will not last long:

Hopefully one might keep you entertained until the full Slow Stick is available. :)

I as well as many others will try to be patient. Are you going to limit the orders person so that everyone gets some?

LOL I think we will have plenty to go around. :) I imagine this will be a one year supply. We can reorder as we see stocks dropping to avoid outages.

No problem, and please tell your friends. We really need some help selling all of these. If this works out well, we can bring back more of the GWS planes. :)
