There is a plane called the wild thing. Can't remember who makes it, but they quit, but if you can find one on ebay, it is one of the most fun planes you will fly.

Also the sig wonder is a blast and a half.

Lanier Shrike 10 -- similar to the Sig Wonder (no landing gear too).

Lanier Stinger 10 -- Fully semetrical

The SIG Scamp or Colt are good ole classics, but I don't believe they are still in production. Try looking
in the RCU classifieds or on EB*y. They fly great & are a simple build but are
3 channel & you were looking for a 4 ch model.

House of Balsa has a few nice kits worth checking out, a profile Extra and a "Stick" type and even a
neat Seaplane...which is on my build list.

Let us know what you end up with. 15 size engines can provide lots of fun & IMHO much less hassel than
the 1/2A stuff for about the same costs.

Do a search on a Sig TriStar, it's a great plane, and a easy build. There is a shop in Texas that has them.
