I’m most interested in the classic acrobatic aircraft from the 60s though the 80s. We are very fortunate have lots of choices in kits and the list is growing. Take a look at this list
http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_3053513/tm.htm The Lanier R/C ARFs on the list have been discontinued, seems to be a trend with ARFs. Some of the newest kits on the market are beautiful laser cut reproductions of the great aircraft like the Taurus and Kwik Fli III. I prefer to build from plans, but right now there are more kits available than I could possibly build in my life time.
