Default RE: about to order 2nd plane

Im not much of a tiger 2 fan so I would say the big stick. To me the Tiger 2 is just not pretty, but thats just my personal preference.

A comparable plane you didnt mentioned is the SIG Four Star 40 or 60 the kit is real cheap like $80 but the ARF is a little high at $209. They fly and look GREAT!

A comparably priced plane that will fly better than the 2 you mentioned is the U CAN DO 40, its as easy to fly as a trainer on low rates but you can crank up the throws and do funfly/aerobatic/3D stuff that will far exceed the others. The 4 star is going to track and fly like a pattern plane, and very aerobatic as is the Big Stik. The U CAN DO is going to takeoff and land like a feather, doesnt track quite as well but flies like a trainer(better than a trainer) on low rates (12 degrees throw) or an aerobatic beast at high rate (45-60 degrees throw)

Just some alternatives for comparable/maybe better planes in your price range....
