There are minute difference between most of the models I have listed. I know of no bad tenedecies of any of those planes and in the right hands with the right setup...cg/throws/mixes..etc..they all can be fantastic flyers. The biggest inadequencies are usually that of the pilot and/or knowledge of how to setup a plane correctly. With the newest computerized radios we have today, almost any bad tendacy can be programmed out almost entirely. There are lots of sites to find on how to setup planes and become a great pilot..but my alltime favorite is Darcy's place.. www.troybuiltmodels.com

Finally...I would pick a plane in the price range you like, color you prefer, style you admire, and fly, fly, fly...
