Default Large size high wing

Just curious, but researching a large high wing plane 50-100cc plane that I could build. I like the kits from amr, except they're all set up as trainers(esp like the payload master for it's size). A more sporty airfoil. Don't like the sticks(sorry stick lovers). I like beavers and similar planes. Any suggestions? Would like a plane that would fly well with both wheels and floats.

one option I suggest is to find a nice set of plans an then get a kit cut. I know theres some kit cutters that have a range of plans\kits available too. Balsa USA have some that may be of interest. Its a lousy situation here down under, and I am in the process of 'bashing' a set of plans of one of the big 12 foot trainer types. I ditched the wing altogether, gone to a more cessna like planform and semi semitrical wing with fowler type flaps, ditto for tailplane. even the fin and rudder got a work over. I am currently working on the fuse now, again going for a more realistic shape rather tha a tall narrow box. It will alo have a cowl to suit my 48cc twin.
There are lots of plans out there for for large scale cessna's, beavers etc, I just wanted some different

Have you heard about the BTEModels Super Flying King? http://www.btemodels.com/sfk.html

I've built one of these and it has been a real treasure of an airplane....

Cheers,

Look at in tower at the Stinson Reliant SR 9 and the Super decathlon Giant kit. I think they are both still offered.
