Default Great 2nd planes

There are a few really good 2nd type planes out there. I am not into the "runway hog" type flying where you just hover and flip the plane over the runway right in front of you so I prefer doing loops or slow rolls while cruising at 80 mph. For this the best all around plane that I have seen is the Carl Goldberg Tiger, either 40 or 60 size. You can do a hover landing in a breeze or land it like your trainer. Crank it up and watch it cover the distance of your field really quick. These planes fly so well that they are also just fun to watch. Other good choices would be the Easy Sport, Mid Star, or Sig Four Star 40 or 60. The 4* planes fly well but float too much for me. If you think you would prefer close in aerobatics then the Thunder Tiger Lazy Tiger is a smaller alternative.
