There are a few others around but for what your looking to spend I think the typhoon may be your best bet, I say get one, maybe upgrade to li-po batteries and fly the wings off the thing. If this will be your first 3-D I'd say thats your best bet, then if you really like it move up to something better later on. You may be able to put together a setup yourself which would give you a better plane, but as for reday to fly thats the way i'd go.
