Wings-flat bottom vs symmetrical?

[KitplaneEnthusiast]

There's an S-1D for sale that I'm interested in. It has the flat bottom wings. What's the 'down side' to these wings? Less aerobatic? Would someone (like me) who just wants to go up and learn aerobatics and have fun notice the difference between the S-1D wings and the S-1S wings? Are these 'older' planes not in favor anymore with the newer ones available now?

I'm just looking fro someone with experience in these planes to help guide me along and help me decide if this is worth pursuing.

THanks!
