One thing I should add about taildraggers, is be cautious on applying power too quickly on take-off if you choose to overpower it.
I did this once on an Eflite Taylorcraft 450 and mowed the lawn! I think the downthrust was too much for the sudden burst of power with the larger than recommended motor, and I did not have much prop clearance. No biggie, did not even break the prop. This was about the only incident I have had with a TD.
Not trying to scare you or anything, just a little something to keep in mind.
Like a full size P51 Mustang, add power smoothly!
Plus taildraggers just look cooler, is everyone convincing you yet? :^)
