Default 100cc plane

I'm looking for a reasonably priced 35% plane for this year. I don't have an incrediable amount of money to spend. But i am going to equip it with a future 40% plane in mind. So what are some good choices. I've looked around at a lot of planes but any info would be great.

building would probably be the most inexpensive for you, i did the same thing. if you wanted to build i sudgest checking out my sponser, silhavy aerosports (www.silhavyaerosports.net). 35% kits are around $450. the 35% that i built wasnt hard, you just have to think through it and you should be fine.

edit, the link wont work, so click on the link in my signature.

I would look at the QB extra 260. Every thing I have seen about them seems good and they look pretty sweet.

I would get a SD 35% YAK or 35% SD extra is a great deal.

If you are into building kits, then Precision Aviation (Robert Godfrey Designs) has a 35% line up. Their kits are $575. You could get an ARF if you are not into building. Everybody has 35% arfs, you will get what you pay for though!!

I am in the same boat, what is the link to the Harris and Anderson site?? I currently own a 30% AM YAK and I must say it does fly awesome, I was looking at one of the 35% 260s but I am worried about being able to get parts for it.
