Joe, while I've moved to mostly bigger stuff, the small Das Box Fly holds an endeared place in the fleet. With no N struts it is easy to set up for a biplane and there are electric planes that make as much noise as the Saito .30.

When building it, I received several comments about how well they fly but how difficult the takeoff runs were... but fortunately this one tracks great on take offs. And, though it is small, because of the light loading and slower speed of a higher drag biplane, it can be flown in a football field area.... so small doesn't matter.
