Default A Good First 3d plane

Here is my skill level

Taught myself on a duraplane and moved on to the durastick after a bad crash
I was able to learn loops, rolls, jack-knifes, inverted fligth, and stall turns
I have since moved on to a pattern plane and am having a blast.
Heke, i am even flying a heli
I want to get into 3d

What do you guys think would be a good plane to look into
I was looking at alot of scale 3d planes but found out they are not as good for learning 3d.
I have seen a lot of 3d planes at my field that i think are called profiles. Ugly, but sure get the job done well.
I am defenitly limited to a 16 years olds budget.

I would like to get a nice 2-stroke over a 4-stroke because of the price
Have a 70 4-stroke in my pattern and it flys great but was expensive and not as powerful as i hoped.

What do you guys think would be a good plane
