I'm guessing your talking kits ??  for what engine ? flapped or non ?

Non flapped, Brodak Viking & Vampire are pretty straight forward

Flapped, The Brodak Accentor was one of my first full fuselage builds and was pretty easy with the step by step dirrections supplied

Scratch build a Tornado by Allen Brickhaus  (A sig Twister with full fuselage) plans from flying models (I have a set) if needed.

There's all kinds of them.

The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.

Hobo gets my vote.
Anybody know if Tom is still selling kits ?  Can't find his website.

I'm working on the Hobo in between the Chumpim20 and a scale racer.   But, if you don't want to scratch build the Oriental would be my choice.

I recently picked up off of ebay the August 2012 Model Aviation issue with the Hobo article.  Here is a scan of the Hobo plan from that article.  You can get full sized plans from Tom or AMA.

Laser-cut, "Ted Fancher Precision-Pro" Hard Point Handle Kits are available again.  PM for info.
