I was just in the same boat as you, except that 50cc is still big for me AND I had no gas experience. I've got an Extreme Flight 88" Edge and I'm so in love with that plane it's not even funny. I spent like 3 months looking up 3D planes in that range and narrowed it down to 3: EF Yak, EF Edge, and 3DHS Slick. I'm partial to the way that Edge's fly so I bought the EF Edge.
