Default Is this plane any good?

Hey guys, I need some info.

I'm looking at buying a "scale" 3d plane (I fly profiles and sticks), and need to know what the scoop is on the Graupner Extra 300. Hobby-Lobby has it for $220, and it's in the .60-.90 range that I'mlooking for. Here are the specs:

Weight: 7 - 7.5 lbs
Wing area: 639 sq. in.
Wingspan: 63"
Length: 46"

If this plane isn't any good, what other Extra's are there on the market that are in the engine range.

PLEASE NOTE:
I would only like replys regarding planes in the .60-.90 range. Due to my income and hangar space, I can't handle any bigger. So if the only responses out there are for 50% IMAC's, please post elsewhere! Also, I am looking for an Extra. Either a 260, 300, or 330. I don't like yaks even though they fly beautifully. So please, stick to the parameters. Thank you very much.

Any brands are welcome.

Thanks
