Go for the 50cc Aeroworks Extra 260. Quality, performance, QB... what more could you want.

Why would you chose them last. Why? I've got 2 right now and owned 3. Never had a problem. They only reason they would lose important parts would be builder error or just a faulty plane. And if you have one Call Tom up. Don't start a brand War.

I agree, pretty hard to loose parts unless they aren't bolted on correctly. Wild hare planes seem pretty strong.

I do seem to like the 50cc Dietrich Extra 260 in the YRB scheme.

If your looking for an awsome 3D plane as well as a precision capable 50cc airframe, i would definitly suggest you to go with the 50cc 88" Yak 54 from Extreme-Flight

Now just something else to add, I'm not trying to down grade any other company but I think that Wild Hare has the best selection of planes that are very strong and fly great for the price.
www.wildharerc.com check out the videos.
