The classic Stik — like you've never seen before!

The “Stik” design has been a favorite of sport pilots for years, offered in different sizes with different power options and in kit, ARF and Rx-R versions. Great Planes' Giant Big Stik XL incorporates everything that has made this iconic aircraft so popular, with the stability and high visibility of a 96.5" wingspan and the option of gasoline or electric power. Final assembly is still easy and straightforward, and its flight characteristics make it a joy to fly.
