Not sure if you are flying electric or glo.

If electric is an option, here are some thoughts for 10 MPH+ wind

Zaggi flying wings have the reputation for being good in the wind. The 480 is pretty quick.

The Twin Jet is both fast and also good in the wind - another delta wing type.

My Aerobird does pretty good up to 12-15 MPH winds, but is not fast.


Alpha Jet is pretty quick. Not sure of wind characteristics

Diablotin Mini - A little more interesting and no runway needed

Just some fun planes that don't require the mess and fuss of fuel.
