Default NEWBIE HELP - Which model to choose?

OK I have a basic knowledge of flying from a while ago....have practiced on a flight simulator...now the big question...which model to go with??!

It's between the Hobbico NexSTAR and the Hobbico Hobbistar 60

NexSTAR has the flat bottom wing design which is great for a trainer...slow landing speeds, etc.

Hobbistar has a more powerful engine with a semi-symmetrical wing design, little more sensitive I know, but it can also probably cut thru the wind with the more powerful engine

I have flown the NexSTAR and like it...and according to the manual you can remove the AFS, Flaps and those anti roll pieces on the wing...basically turning it into a "normal" trainer after that, just will have the flat bottom wing

So I would like to hear everyone's opinion on what to do here

Thanks!!!
