Default I've got the urge... please help!

Hey guys. I've got a little extra money laying around. I want a new plane! Any suggestions on a fun/sport/3d'ish type of plane for a OS25FX. I almost bought the Extreme flight mini 3d. That is, until i found out that i couldn't. None in stock, and it doesn't look like there will be any in stock for a while. I can't seem to find much in the size i'm looking at. Help me spend my money!!
Thanks,
Dan

I have the Model Tech Extra 300 and it is a really good plane for the money. I don't care for the plastic fuselage top from the cockpit forward thought. It would fly on a .25, but I have a .40 in mine.

Here are the smaller Hobby Shack ARF gas planes:

The Extra 300 is there, and listed as "in stock".

I like this new one for .15's:

Backorders though.

Also, they have AP .061's for $32 this week.

If you don't mind building or profiles, you could look at the Taco here:

I'm scratching one myself from the original Taco plans I downloaded off his website. Pretty straight forward build, but a medium number of sticks.
