with a .46 you will want to shy away from any full bodies,the profiles will do better with that motor.

Go with a profile if you can as they are lighter and handle really nice for 3D but if not here are a couple of not too bad full bodied planes for 3D:

Phoenix FunStar
TT Expo 3D
Magic Extra (covering trims will want to peel off)

Both fly great with an APC 11x5.

I just picked up the Mojo ARF from Paul Swany. I have heard so many good things about the Mojo I couldn't help myself. You can check it out at www.swanyshouse.com Your .46 should pull the Mojo around nicely.

If you build and have some skills consider the Primo also from Paul I have the following 3D planes (listed in order of preference)
Primo, MoJo 60, OMP Extra, OMP FUsion, Maxair Velox. The Primo is an all out 3D plane the MoJo three D's almost as well things just happen a bit slower. Look up "the profile brotherhood" Cannot post the link (blocked) join up, this is the home of profile 3D flying.
Good Guys lots of REAL help and very little crap. Welcome brother.
