I am in the midst of completing my first airplane - LT-40. I have lots of stuff to learn before I fly a second plane. But, none-the-less, my gears are turning and my mind is wandering of what my second plane should be. I DEFINATELY want a kit. They are just too much fun to build, despite the CA fumes tearing up my eyes and the hacking as I blow balsa dust back out of my lungs.

However, most the aerobatic planes that I have seen are ARFs. I have been looking at the Edge 540 .60 size. Hangar 9 has them for $170 or so. Is there aerobatic plane that it similar to the Edge 540 as far as performance, but in a kit format? Also, this will be my second kit, so I don't want to fall off a cliff on difficulty. The LT-40 is a relatively simple build. I don't mind upping the anti a bit, but I don't want it to be too difficult to build.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
