Last week, I crashed my 84" span plane, which was a scratch built design that I really liked. Although I like its looks, I've had nothing but trouble from it every weekend, culminating in some type of radio failure ( a brand new transmitter and reciever at that) that put it through some trees. So now I'm looking for something new that I can put the salvaged parts in. I have a Fuji 64 that needs a plane to fit it. I'd like an ARF, or Kit, as I don't have the time nor inclination to do a scratch build. So far, all I can find are large scale warbirds or aerobats. I'm looking for something more along the lines of a sport plane in large scale, prefferably a mid or shoulder wing design. Any help on where I can find an ARF or Kit that might fit my desires would be greatly appreciated.

Take a look at Air Flair's Prime Sport. It's a good sport flier, and one that you don't see very often. http://www.airflair.com/flaircat1.html#PrimeSport
There are two around here. Mine has a 4.2. The other, a G62.

Thanks for the info guys. I like the Air Flair large scale planes. I thought about the Super Flying King, but as noted, it has a really big wing. I would assume it flies good, since I built a Delta Vortex and it flies great, and was a well put together kit.
I thought about some of the Kit cutting companies, and might go that route also. I found plans for the Dornier 335 Arrow, and thought it might be something unusual to build, but I'm having second thoughts on that. I need to stick to my original goals of a Sport flyer, something that is a Jack of all trades, but master of none.
