Default Does a .15 size 3D plane exist?

I had an artf 3d mini laser and it flew ok - not 3d though. The control surfaces warped after only a short time. The covering also stuck together on the control surfaces (between the top and bottom of the aileron between the void of the wood). I took the gearbox off and fitted a cobalt 400. It was ballistic but struggled to take the stress. It Broke!
I think this model is a beautiful kit but would need to be thought out properly before fitting IC. The weight of the battery pack (500ar 8.4v) was also, in my view, a bit heavy.
My opinion of this model is it is best left as an electric.

The comacro looks like my Mini Jazz. Powered by an mds18 but 25 would be better. 33inch wingspan and very maneuverable.
