Default Question on Stinger suitability

Ok here's my question. I've been flying my trainer a while and I'm totally bored with it. I've cranked up the throws so far the ailerons are almost vertial on the wing

I've flown it a LOT (probably pushing 10-12 gallons so far) and people comment on how good I fly (not a brag I just fly a lot of stick time) and I do the usual stuff with a trainer, rools/loops/inverted and can even manage a really crappy looking snap with it with the rates cocked way up.

Right now it's the only plane I own but I've flown another guys 4* 60 size with a .91 4-stroke several times including the full aerobatic (meaning I didn't just fly the pattern) take-offs, landings no problem etc..

IF I get a stinger 60 size ARF and really tone down the throws think it will be suitable for me at this stage? Everyone at the field recommends a 4* but I really like the stinger. The other plane they recommend is the U-CAN-DO because of it's thick wing it flies slow. Only problem is I hate the damn thing, on weekends it's a uncando fly in it appears with my trainer being the odd one out.

Anyway if it's way beyond me I'll look into building a 4* and fly it for a while....
