i know these can appear to be hard, a goldberg falcon 56, or senior falcon, skylark, hobbico 60 trainer, goldberg skylane 62, or UCANDO 3D are excellent choices. GO FOR THE UCANDO! though it can be aerobatic, turn the controls down and with that big thick wing it floats and floats.
or look in the back of model aviation magazine for swap meets in your area and go buy buy buy!
