30cc aerobatic sport Sunday flyer?

Looking for a nice 30cc or smaller gas airplane that is the best Sunday/Sport flyer. Hanger 9 Ultra Stick 30cc or Hanger 9 Tiger 30cc seem to be the choices, any other recommendations?

If you could find one the Great Planes Escapade MX 30 is a great Sunday flier with a DLE 30.

I have a Hanger 9 Ultra Stik with EME 35, it will slow and fly like a stik/cub or cut up pretty good. Great for a relaxing day.

I have built and flown both of the H9 planes. the Tiger doesn't leave a lot of options on the engine, as it is designed around the DLE 35RA. it's not a terribly lively airplane compared to the Stik or the aerobatic options, but it is big, easy to see, and lightly aerobatic. The Stik is a really fun and easy to fly airplane with a wide range of motor options.

I wouldn't turn my nose up at the H9 RV4. Especially if you would like to fly a scale looking plane.

Leaning towards the Stick and about to pull the trigger so I can get moving.

The H9 Stick is awesome. You could also consider a Bill Hempel 25% clipped wing cub.

Every suggestion here is good but in my opinion, for a beat around airplane, nothing beats a stick!
