Top Flite's Contender 60 is still around $80 for the kit.

Fun plane and a good build. Covering is a little tricky if you build the angled wing-tips but not too difficult if you take your time and pull hard.
Flies very nice, and the apron flap is fun to experiment with (especially if you have a mixing transmitter and rig the ailerons to tip up on a trim switch. Pseudo-CROW for short field landings.
