The tower kaos ARF is a good buy and suppose to be a good flying plane. Goes on sale sometimes too. The arf will get you back into the air fast.
I'll second the Kaos recommendation. I bought one with an engine on one of those TH deals. I think I got both the plane & engine (free shipping) for about $135.
Its become my favorite. Fits in my vehicle witht the wings on and flys great. I still do my inverted flying at a good altitude though
My other planes (LT-40, LT-25 and 4*60) mostly collect dust in my "hanger"
