Best RTF biplane for 200 dollars more or less
By best I mean quality, flying manners, dualbility, etc. I own and have flown 4 channel planes including Parkzone T-28, Typhoon II and Parkflyers Gee Bee. I take little credit that the Typhoon II is still in one piece after it's flight. I would like to buy a biplane and eventually a EDF jet of some type. From all I've read here and on other RC sites, it seems the RTF Art-Tech Christen Eagle BL 2.4 may the ideal one for me. IF any of you have any experience with that plane or any similar please advise me. Thanks.

I ordered an Art-Tech Christen Eagle just before I read your post. The Waco looks like a very nice plane. I hope I didn't screw up buying the Christen Eagle. I have seen mostly good comments on it so far. Thanks for the information.
