Help! Give opions / help me choose

I am kind of getting Yak'ed out, I have three ( 25%, 305, and a 33% ).
I am looking for a new 35%'er.
I really like the Extreme flight 110" Yak, BUT, yet again, another Yak.
I am kind of down to four choices, but open to new suggestions.
Please give opinions, good, bad, and ugly.

Hanger 9 Extra 260

Aerworks Extra 260

TOC / SD Extra 260

PAU Edge 540

I'd go with the AW. Their models are the hottest.

I would stick to either the Aeroworks or the Hangar 9.

Personal experiences:

I will never buy another TOC/SD/TT (whatever) airplane in my life. I had one of their 30% yaks quite a few years ago and the quality sucks IMO and they don't fly as well.

Now, Aeroworks is a whooooole other ball game. Quality is more than you expect, all parts fit perfect considering it's an ARF, it includes so many more things than other ARF's and they fly AWESOME. I had a AW 260 35% from the first batch (heavier) and it was the best 35% plane I ever flew. Gave it around 600 flights before my buddy crashed it.

Can't say much about the H9 or PAU Edge as haven't had any experience with those.
