Default H9 Carden Edition Yak versus CompARF Yak

I am contemplating a purchase of a 50cc plane and would like to see some thoughts on these two aircraft. Quality, flying characteristics, price ready to fly, etc. I have found nice examples of both. A CompARf with the DA50 for $1300 and the H9 with Evolution 58 for $1100. I know nothing about the reputation of the Evolution engines. Does anyone have thoughts on these two airframes and enignes?

Thanks for any guidance.

A plus would be that the Hangar 9 still has parts available from Horizon if you went with their Yak. Haven't heard too much about the Evolution engine. You might do some searching before investing in this powerplant. The one review on the Horizon site isn't very complimentary, ha, ha. I don't think many people would argue about the reputation of the Da 50. Is that CARF ready to fly? That price isn't that far away from what a new plane and engine would cost.

Yes, both planes are RTF. Thanks for your input. The decision may rest on the engine. I really like DA motors and have owned 3 of the DA100's.
