I think the Airfoilz Yak is the way to go. I have found in my 14 years in the hobby you pay for what you get most of the time. The AirfoilZ is no exception to that it cost a little more but you get a plane ten times better than a flat wing foamy that will last you. To break the airfoilZ to the point it cannot be repaired with out substantial weight gain you have to hit very hard. The slow crashes that happen when 3ding low is no problem for the AirfoilZ. I have banged mine in pretty good a few times. Broken props but no major damage to the Airframe. Had to epoxy the elevator back together no problems there back in the air in no time. The AirfoilZ will grow with you. It will be your piloting skills that hold you back not the plane were as with other foamies that becomes the case very fast depending on how much you fly. Get the AirfoilZ now and in a few months you won't be looking to upgrade and spend even more money. Spend the money now and it will save you in the long run! Just turn the throws down to start out and increase them as you get better.
