Default Help with 2nd Plane Choices

Hey folks.

I have a question regarding my choices for a second plane. I currently have a Nexstar, that I have solo'd and have started on my first kit, a 4*60. I would like to purchase a second plane to fly right away, but would like some input from some of you that have more experience than I have. Part of the problem is work. I am working on the construction of a new Hydro Generating Station in northern Manitoba and am away from home for 35 days, and then at home for only 6 days. This does not leave alot of time for anything. One of my first choices was a Goldberg Tiger 60, but I am thinking this would make a good second build. Another choice is a Great Planes Escapade. I have read through much of the thread on this plane, and am concerned about the landing gear, and elevators. I don't know if I have the time to modify these and still get some flight time. The other plane I have been looking at is the Hanger 9 Pulse XT . 40. I haven't found that much info on this plane so I'm not sure if it would be a good second plane or not. If it would be a good second plane, does it have any issues? Some help with this " Earth Shattering Dilema " would be greatly appreciated. If you have other possibilities, please let me know .

Thanks very much.
