Well I hate to be the bearer of bad news but it looks like your addicted to the hobby like several thousand others on here.

The 3M extra is a very very nice airplane. There's nothing better but lots worse if you get my meaning.

Put it this way, there is no way that you will be sorry you took the plunge. They fly absolutely fantastic.

Composite Arf makes a couple planes you oughta consider...
the Extra 260 has smaller flippers.. but is a little more Razzle-Dazzle then the Super Extra.. which has huge flippers, but is a bit larger and is floaty'r. And the Yak in the 3 meter size is promising as well..

Check out http://www.putfile.com/mithrandir13 for a buch of SX Vids and also Mark Trant manages a website called http://www.composite-arf-world.com and he has several good vids and pictures... My SX is over a year old with over 200 flights... and it still in great shape except where I dropped stuff on it!!!
