Default New Biplane arf's

well I'm going to pick up a Biplane. I have a great planes cub 81!QUOT! I have a hangar 9 cap 232 bretling the Grey one that one is touchy and i have a seagull space-walker II thats a low wing cub i seam to fly them all without trouble the cub is still my fav due to its big and slow flight I have been looking at the great planes tiger moth its 71!QUOT! and uses a 90 4 stroke I'm thinking this will fly a lot like the cub. I live in Wisconsin and its 10mph wind 90% of time means the cub is a hand full the cap loves the wind it lands better with a head wind the space walker i haven't had long and it lost a new engine first week end so i have to say I'm not sure how well it deals with wind I also noticed the engine thrust was way off on the kit i have sense made changes to that will see how it does soon. My other consideration was the stearman 120 that great planes has its a bit pricey but i feel it may deal with the wind a bit better than the tiger moth. If any of you have experience with any Biplane ARF kits out there that are worth it let me know so far i feel great planes has made me the happiest with quality and workmanship.
