Default which plane should i get?

hey,

well i have got a sky scooter pro 2 right now and i am wondering what plane should i get now. i am wanting to have something that can do stunts as i am starting to get bored with the sky scooter stunts. my budget though is pretty tight and it has 2 be available in the UK. at least less than £200 for the plane, charger and radio gear so its a complete set. thanks in advance

With your budget, you need to ask club members if they might have a used package deal. If a local group has a swap-n-shop, you could find a good used set-up there also.

i have just looked at the Great Planes ElectroStreak and it is £100 out of my budget but it looks very nice. but it has to be a bit cheaper below £200. thanks anyway.
