RE: going to try instead of arf.
I would agree with everyone about the SSE. Almost every spring, I consider selling mine; then fly it and change my mine. It was the first kit I built and almost fool proof. I've considered scaling it up to a 60 size a couple times, but there are always too many projects...
Another suggestion would be CG Super Chipmunk. I didn't build mine, so I can't talk about that, but I did enjoy flying it! Right until the afternoon I belly flopped it in the corn field. I would buy another if it came along and the price was right...
