RE: Moving up to Aerobatics
Some of the smaller and cheaper profiles can be fun too. I have a OMP Katana 70 and a TT Fun Tiger and have a BLAST with both of them. My next plane of choice is the Somethin Extra. But if you want to mix a little speed with some aerobatics, try a warbird ... P40, P51, Spitfire .... They won't hover or do harriers, but they're easier to handle at higher speeds.
