In Basic, you can fly anything you want. But above Basic, you need a plane that is a model of a full size that has or is known to be able to compete in an aerobatic box. Somehow, I don't think there is a full size version of the U-Can-Do 3D 60. So if you want a plane that will take you from Basic through Sportsman, you better look at another plane.

Basically, you are looking for an Extra, Edge, Cap, Sukhoi, Staudacher, etc. Since I don't fly 60 sized planes, I can't recommend any particular plane. But if you are new to scale aerobatics, I think the straight leading edge of the Edge makes it a good first plane. It lowers the stall speed significantly and that can be a benefit, especially to the newer pilot. But that doesn't mean the Edge is not a good competition plane. It has won a significant number of full size events and was dominating for a while. They do well in IMAC too.
