Product Details

The ultimate in 3D flight, from Gary Wright.

Gary Wright’s passion and dedication to RC flight shines through with the all-out 3D performance of the Tower Hobbies Slow Ride EP ARF. It's the only plane designed and developed for high-level, super-slow 3D maneuvers. Large control surfaces and short, direct linkages provide seamless, complete control over every flight. An exceptional power-to-thrust ratio ensures longer flight times, meaning you can execute multiple exciting aerobatic maneuvers with a fully charged LiPo pack. For close, tight flight that’s also low and slow, give the Slow Ride 3D EP ARF a spin!
  • Designed by celebrated RC pilot Gary Wright!
  • Lightweight, built-up wood construction.
  • Large control surfaces and short, direct control linkages.
  • Large, removable hatch.
  • Double-beveled hinge lines.
  • Ultra-low wing loading.
  • Removable, lightweight Side Force Generators.
  • Low parts count.
  • Self-aligning tail surfaces.
  • Steerable tailwheel.
  • High-visibility trim scheme.

Gary has come up with some of the most unique and fun designs over the many years I've known him and the Slow Ride continues this tradition. It is a fun, capable and lightweight design that won't disappoint... and will surprise you with its agility.

Last summer when I was in Champaign, I had the chance to do some flying with Gary and the Slow Ride. This thing is awesome! It actually feels like it's full of helium at times. I can't wait to get mine as I just happen to have a warehouse I think it will be great for.
