Check the Stinger 60 ARF. I had a Stinger 40 - I don't remember if it was my 2nd powered plane or not(I started with gliders) but it was my first aerobatic (not trainer type) airplane.

The Stingers of all sizes have a reputation for being gentle planes when set up gentle, and real performers when set up aggressively. I remember being apprehensive about my first stinger flight and then thinking "Is that it" when I got it up & trimmed.

Fly it on low rates and forward CG at first, then go high rates and ease the CG back when you are ready for it.
