The short answer is none that fly well. Duraplanes, US Aircore, and a few others were designed to sell, not designed to work. The Hobbyzone Super Cub bounces well and is passable for a toy. A well built balsa trainer is remarkably durable but not like the dismiss. The upshot of balsa is they fly better, so they don't crash as much.
