Go for the Giles. A good flying design yesterday is still a good flying desing today. The RC aerobatics crowd is about as fickle as it gets, and a lot of them suffer from the 'latest=greatest' affliction.

All these planes are based on full scale aerobats and bring many of the same characteristics with them. Look at the last (2000) world aerobatics championships. Won by a Cap 232 (yet again). Top 10 positions were ALL Cap 232's and Sukhoi 31's, even 5/5 split. Kirby Chambliss managed to bring in an Edge 540 in 14th.

All the currently modelled aerobats (Cap, Giles, Extra, Sukhoi...) are capable of most anything set up right and flown by a capable pilot.
