Default Second Plane?

I'm looking for a scale looking second plane. I was thinking about the parkzone P-51 but that seems too much of a jump. What do you recommend for me? Scale is very important. Thanks!

If you want an easy to fix still somewhat beginner/intermediate plane, I have the ParkFlyers Cessna 182, foamy. You can buy all of the necessary parts for $80 and add your own radio equip. The RTF radio equip. that it is packaged with leaves a lot to be desired, and frankly is crap. It is easy to fix and parts are readily avail. and cheap. If you are looking for balsa, E-Flite, no question. Their Cessna 182 is nice looking. My next plane is going to be an E-Flite, just having a hard time deciding between the Mini Ultra Stick and the Mini Edge.
