RE: Second Plane
My opinion would be to first keep flying your Avistar until you are extremely comfortable with it. Then you could move on to the GP Mustang if you had a very experienced pilot fly it with you on a buddy box. That way you can gradually get used to it's characteristics. I have seen so many just solo'ed pilots jump into a hot second plane and then smack it into the ground because it was too big of a step up. I have heard that the Mustang flys very well for a semi-scale plane. Just ease into it, and good luck!
