How about the Kyosho 50?

I have a WB60 that I think flies pretty well and the Epsilon is the progression of the design.

Status: offline 		The Epsilon is sold by Netbox Hobby, https://www.netboxhobby.com/ The WideBody 60 is no longer being made; but if you offer me enought, I'll sell you my ARC.

Status: offline 		There is a Focus Sport but by all accounts it is designed around the YS 1.10 for power so you may find the 91 OS a bit lacking. I personally don't know anymore about it than what I read here on RCU.

I would sell my WB 60 however. I have a YS 91 in it and it has no problems with vertical penetration. An OS 91 would have a bi less power but should fly that size plane nicely.
