RE: 3D Profiles
I would suggest the Mojo for learing. It's *very* forgiving and (most importantly) it's tough as hell.
A crash that would re-kit a Katana can often leave a Mojo virtually unscathed.
A profile (or any plane) that's been repaired too often becomes heavy and harder to 3D properly -- go with the Mojo, you won't be disappointed.
