Default RE: Good 2nd plane

It depends on what you want - tri gear or taildragger.

A great many of the planes available are taildraggers, and sooner or later you will probably want/get one. While there are some differences in take off/landing of a taildragger, most people have no problem transitioning to a taildragger

The Tiger II can be either tri gear or tail dragger. I am not sure if the 4* can be made tri gear or not.

If you are interested in an ARF, you might want to look at the World Models Rambler 30 and 45. The primary difference between the 2 is the 45 has retracts. I have the 30 and really like it - in fact it was the plane I learned to knife edge on.
