Consider a Big Stick .40! I've been flying a .60 size one for awhile now and although I also fly a sukoi 31(low wing tail dragger),the Big Stick is by far the best flying and most fun of the 2. And its way easier to land and take off etc. Glad I got it as my second plane instead of going straight to low wing tail draggers. You've got to be comfortable steering as you take off to fly tail draggers and that takes time. Big sticks can easily be converted over to tail draggers too. Big Sticks rule!! LOL

If you do decide to go with one of your 2 choices,after watching a funtana (60 I think) fly this weekend....I wouldnt recommend it. It flew very bad,but maybe it was just setup bad. That showtime plane you said about is pretty cool looking though. That would be my pick of the 2.

Good luck
