Default Looking for advice on a 2nd PLane (1st 4 ch plane)!

Hey folks,

Looking for some thoughts on a second plane thats also my first 4ch plane!
I currently have the Hobbyzone Super Cub which is an AWESOME 3ch plane!

But Im going to be looking for something 4 ch very VERY soon!

I had a PZ Corsair prior to the Supercub but its sadly MIA! (Dont ask!!)

So I have a Dx5 and I bought another Rx with the intent of putting into the Supercub as I dont use the ACT anyway but decided not to as I want the parachute drop module for it and dont want to lose the x-port.

SO...... Im looking for thoughts on whats a good 4ch plane! Ive thought about the Art Tech Cessna but its RTF, Would it be worth buying and putting my Dx5 in and then dumping the Tx/Rx?

But ideally I want BNF or ARF..... This brings me back to the Corsair....
But IM not 100% sold on either of them!

Any other ideas!

cheers folks!!

I think all of the PZ new warbird planes are good 2nd planes just remeber when turning the plane around add some down eleveator bank n yank maybe the trojan would be easies to fly, but not much different from the rest. or you could add some ailerons to that super cub

Just to throw another possible choice into the mix!
