That is a "GWS Pico stick F" (f stands for full fuselage model)
It is a 3ch foam plane that uses an GWS IPS motor system,a 2s lipo,2 servos, an RX and 10A ESC,simple,flies great.

If F is for Fokker then what does the F in my GWS J3-F stand for?

thanks i was looking for the regular version of this without the fuselage. i already have an fm radio and a 700mah 2s lipo with charger from my heli. all i need now if i get the plane is 2 servos, a motor and a receiver

Personally, I get the larger slow-stick,it likes small batteries and is easier to fly,don't forget an "GWS ESC480li" ESC,that is the best for either.

Seriously,get the slow stick or a different motor,I know hobbycity.com,you bought the towerpro set up,it is way too much power for that plane,the plane weighs 8 oz and you are going to put a motor that outputs 22 oz of thrust,that is way too much,it will rip the wings off.

Sonic, I was being a bit F for facetious. The plane does look like a fokker however.

Yahman, I flew my fokker with a tp 2410-08 and 10x47 prop, but if that combo comes with a Mag 8 esc, it is probably only good for 3s lipo.
