Default PT-19

The first RC I built was in 1979 was a PT-19. I ordered the kit from some mail order hobby shop in the LA area along with a Fuji 25. I think the kit was built about twice the weight it should have been and the engine was about 1/2 the size it should have had. It did not even power enough pull the tail up much less go fast enough to get off the ground and fly. I didn't know any better. 35 years later and somewhere in 50-60 kits built later I would like to build another PT-19 in either a 40-60 size but can't find either a kit or plans to scratch build. Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
