Closest thing I am aware of is the Great Planes Giant Big Stick. But it's rates for 25-35cc engines. Might be a little big for what you want.

Check out the Drastik

It's an ARF, very similar to the UltraStick...but lighter in weight. At least lighter than the original UltraStick I believe they also made a lightweight version.
I had/have one with a Saito 180. On the second flight, the radio stopped listening and Kaplooiiee! But up to that point it flew great and I'm just waiting for time to do a major rebuild or buy another one.
