I was going to build my first combat plane this winter and all the other pilots at my field have Lanier Slashers... To my horror the slasher is discontinued and I cant find anyone who still has it in stock.
I have O.S. 25 fp that I'll be using.. and I'm not a experienced builder and a sloppy pilot.

Any suggestions for a plane arf / kit instead of the now discontinued Slasher?
Something with serious reinforcement on the wings maybe? I don't mind repairing a lot of things but wing and spar breaks i leave alone.
+ the slasher had nice sturdy plastic fuselage.... heavy yes but durable

I will be mainly going against slashers with .25 or .32's in them. And as we are not sanctioned or anything we go for more than the steamers if we have the chance.
Suggestions please?
