Default Decisions, decisions!

Hi Guys,
I was wondering if anybody can give me some advice on a plane to replace my President funfly that recently made a sudden and fatal encounter with a BFR? I am interested in the 3D Hype and the Cougar 2000. I have an OS 46 FX with a JE Purple Pipe and would like to use this if I can. I will fly the plane in funfly competitions but I would also like to do 3D stuff like prop hanging and such. It seems from other forums, that the 46 may be too heavy for the Cougar. ( I don’t know.) But, is it powerful enough for the Hype? Could the Magic also be a choice? I hate this part! Decisions, decisions!
I have been flying for 5 years now and can throw them around the sky reasonably well. (Bar hitting rocks.) But you guys have the experience to help me not make a big mistake in buying the wrong model.
Thanks in advance.
Bob

Madness, if you could still find one, or maybe the new Magic extra thingy. Extreme light 3D, or the hype. I am sure that they would all be excellent. The QHOR, or whatever it is called might also be the ticket. www.spadtothebone.com It is not full fuse, but is CHEAPO.....How about the new Funtana 40 from www.horizonhobby.com

Look for a member called Phillibaby, and check out his website in his signature, or somewhere. He has a review of it. I think he had some good things to say about it.
