Default Don't know what to get

I have a Sky Scooter II and its a fun plane to fly but I want somthing with more power for areobatics. I have been looking at a few planes but can't decide on one.

Cobra EPP ARF
Eagle EPP Fun Flyer
Miracle EPP
Capriol
Yak 55SP-E

I like the Yak 55SP-E but, I just don't want to crash it seeing as its made out of balsa. What would you all recommend? This will my first 3d plane.

IF you are willing to spend the cash to get a brushless setup, get one of the 3D foamy kits that are available. There are several people selling them from complete systems to foam only. If you have nothing but a transmitter http://www.fancyfoam.com/ has complete systems ready to build with everything included. Once you have the gear, the planes are dirt cheap and if you plan ahead, make patterns of everything before building the plane and then you can cut them out of fanfold or depron. Even the new E-flight Tribute foamy is an excellent flying foamy once you go 3 cell Lipo and brushless motor.

I was look for somthing a little cheaper then 300. I allready have a 6ch radio that I used on my old gas plane so at least that saves me alot of money.
