Default Need Help/advice please

Hey guys/gals....im new to this forum so please be patient with me here. Ive been in R/C for about 18 years, mostly flying stuff that is fast, i do have a Super Sportster 90/120, yeaaa go ahead and laugh, its old but not many flights on it at all,still looks like new, i also fly 60 size heli's....im looking into getting a 3D plane, there are SO MANY to choose from. I really like the looks of the Funtana, but i see there are a LOT of people ranting about tip stalling, ailerons and such coming off in flight ect ect, i do understand that when something is a pretty new design that there can be some issues with it, thus from what ive been reading and bunches of it that there 'might' be issues with the Funtana, maybe not, but its been enough from what i have seen that im a bit skidish of looking at getting one of those right now. I know that im probably going to get a bunch of different answers here as to a plane to look at or choose. I will tell you what ive got to work with 'IF' it will work without me having to buy another engine, ive got a YS 45 with header and tune pipe and also a YS 61 with a pipe, I also have a Super Tiger 90. And i do understand that the 3D planes are made light and are not meant for speed for the most part.

Ive never flown any 3D planes just so that you do understand that, just as all of you had not at some point in time. What would be your suggestions as to a plane of choice that would be a really good solid plane that is tried, true and proven ?
