Default Please help me choose between the two ART Beginner planes

Hey all!
I bought a Kyosho minium Autokite (I know its a toy) and have put enough hours on it to be bored to death now (about 10 hours in the last two weeks). I actually enjoy flying it in the wind now since it is a bit of a challenge. I want to move to a bigger more powerful 4channel ART Beginner plane.

I have looked around and these two have caught my eye. Any suggestion as to which one I should go with? So far I am torn between the two. Although from the videos it seems the GreatPlanes (I mean hobbico dunno why i thought great planes) one has a more powerful motor out of the box, but i was not able to find the kv rating of the motor on tower/manufacturers website. Then again the bixler can fit a gopro real nice for some fun video recording. I like them both lol.... Need someone with more experience or knowledge on these planes to help me out. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

I like the fact that the greatplanes model has landing gear but its not that big of a deal.
