Sounds like you are making real progress. Congratulations and welcome to this great hobby. Couple basic things about our planes. Wings. These are where most (much more to it, but keeping it simple here) of your performance characteristics will stem from.

Flat bottom and a lot of dihedral - very forgiving, and makes even a smaller rudder more effective.

Semi - symmetrical with a lot of dihedral - more aerobatic, retains some built it stability, still good rudder response with smaller surfaces

Symmetrical with little dihedral - goes where you point it, not forgiving, very aerobatic, comfortable in all attitudes

Now many other factors play into a planes characteristics like the size of the wing in relation to the all up weight (wing loading), power to weight ratio, balance, size of control surfaces, and much much more, but basically, the wing airfoil will set the planes aerobatic limitations. When in the early stages of learning to fly, these inherent limitations can be a protection.

With each of these progressions, the pilot must be mentally farther ahead of the plane to keep it under control, even at slower speeds. Therefore, more accumulated stick time is helpful with each progressive type. It would be wise to consider this and select planes that inherently will help you not fly beyond what you are mentally capable of keeping up with. Planes capable of extreme aerobatics (3D) are easy to get behind mentally. Dangerous to your plane, you, and spectators.

Wishing you continued progress and a great summer of flying.
