I would lean toward the Aresti...But then again its a very well done ARF. If your looking into a Kaos don't look at the GP Super Kaos or the Tower version...Go for one of the other models Joe Bridi has available like the Ultimate, or Utter Kaos these are improved designs that make good improvements.....

The Tracer seems to be another good choice but I have not seen many around...

The Aresti is a really good solution at a great price.

I fly pattern and the Aresti although not quite as solid as my YS140 DZ powered Smaragd can do all of the sequences currently in place for next year. Especially if you starting out in Pattern I would look at the Saito 72 for power it is light and runs very well.
