I had a Stinger 120 a few years ago. No complaints but i guess where i was coming from is what direction in this hobby do you want to go. depending on what that may be could save you from wastng time and money on planes. Warbirds, Scale, Aerobatics, 3D etc.
I do warbirds and speed is my main thing. One thing about those 3D U Can Do things are the engines must be inverted and there is no place to lower the tank. This causes problems and i go to the field to have fun and fly, not fix and fart with a plane all day.
Anyways how about a small ultra stik. Trainer like capabilities but with no dihedral and can move with the best of them.
