if you want another kit, the great planes rapture is a good second plane and will do quite a bit aerobatics wise. its also something different, everyone else has 4star's.
imo dont waste your time building a kit that is a arf. their are to many kits you would never get to try.
I'm looking at the SIGMidStar 40 Looks like I could handle the build and I already have an engine for it
That looks like a good plane, but unless you have crashed your trainer beyond repair, keep it ready to fly. It's always good to have a second plane in the hanger, ready to fly. Maybe a third on the bench getting ready. You've got the TX, a4 to 6 channel receiver on the 72mhz band can be had for $25 to $30 bucks and a I'm sure that there are a number of 40 size engines avaiable from club members, so you total additional cost is minimual. And, sometimes, it good to go back on the trainer now and then.
