Default Capiche 50 v Hype 3D

Considering a new plane for the winter. Don’t want to spend too much time building. Originally looked at the Hype3d, by Weston UK, and then came across the Capiche 50.

I have read a little about both and have saw the Hype 3d for real flying at the local field, but never saw the Capiche flying. Was considering the Irvine 53 possibly with a pipe for whichever model I choose.

What I want is an aircraft that will be very capable of 3d flying and also provide a good platform for pattern aerobatics.

Questions for those who can help

Capiche :- I see there is two wing options, do you really need to buy both to have an aircraft capable of doing 3d and aerobatics very well. (I assume you do but not sure)

Hype 3D :- There was some suggestions that kit quality and aircraft performance wasn’t as good in some of the versions. If so which ones are the ones to stay away from.

Finally which one do you suggest I buy ?
