Default Next plane

I was wondering if I can get some feedback from you all with some suggestions for a good next plane. After a high wing trainer, I currently have what most call a low wing trainer: Golberg Tiger 60 (deluxe kit w/retracts) which is very nice and I'm still getting better with for the last couple of seasons.

I next went to a H9 Cessna Skylane (discontinued) which promptly went into the ground on the second flight after an unexpected snap.

The club instructor though it might have been an aileron hinge come loose, but I'm not at all sure it wasn't radio interference. I have been told that those kind of scale planes could tip stall.

So I'm looking for what you would reccomend for the next safe transition. It would be my first taildragger as the Tiger set up as tricycle.

I'm looking at possibilities such as Aero Works Edge 540 .46/.61 I have seen great reviews on this.

Or Goldberg Edge 540 67"

Or H9 Funtana X 50 I think it looks good, but have seen all kinds of negative reviews here about how it acts and having to modify the wing, etc. which is not what I want to have to do.

Any suggestions on these or others would be helpful for something that's not going to "bite" me when I least expect it!

Thanks.
