Default Best plane for windy conditions?

I fly with Boneman, I must say, trainers in the wind isn't bad at all, is quite fun. However, both of us are moving on, and the biggest thing for me is, survivability.

I have a kyosho .40 Spitfire and a GP .60 Stuka all ready to fly, but been 15-20 MPH winds last few days, prolly rest of week.

So a heavy warbird do better then say, Boneman's fairly light Venture .60? Is it the weight, or the wing size? I have a GP 90 inch wingspan cub, pretty heavy, but will the massive wings be air magnets?

Sooner or later I am gonna just say screw it and go, getting antsy!
