If you are looking for a stunt trainer, I would look at something more durable and repairable than the Flite Streak ARF. The nose construction of the ARF Streak will not withstand much abuse.
Take a look at the foam wing Corehouse Streak RST (Rugged Stunt Trainer) by Phil Cartier. It's inexpensive and builds very quickly. If you are a quick builder, it could be flying in just about a week. It's a very good alternative to the old UKEY series of planes. I can tell you that it will withstand a savage beating and keep flying. We have been punishing ours this spring and it has been very sturdy. The durability of a foam wing plane like this is unreal. Rustoleum on the body, clear SLC covering on the wing. No regrets.

I'm using a Flite Streak Trainer to teach my wife to fly. All wood and has survived a few crashes without any damage, other than broken props. It's all wood construction. OS 25FP on 52' lines.

If you've just got to have an ARF and you've got to have it now, the Brodak Super Clown seems to be the closest. I couldn't find any flapless planes in their ARF series.
Either that, or if you've got CL activity in your area ask if anyone has an old plane their willing to give up.

Steve check Amazon. I was just on there a few moments ago and it appears they have them
