Does anyone know where I can get Combat ARF's? I don't really have room to build them myself but I got a .25 OS engine waiting for one of those things. Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
BT

Another source for ARTF planes is George Cleveland. He imports the Falcon 72 (.25) for Open B and Falcon 64 for SSC (.15). George has been have CL combat planes ARF'd in the Ukraine for many years and the quality is outstanding.
Lee Liddle won the 2003 Nats using a Falcon 72. George's are similar but constructed in a slightly different manner.
When you receive the Falcon from George all you have to do is join the wing panels with the supplied screws, bolt on your engine, and drop in your radio components. The hinging is already done for you.

I guess I forgot to mention I'm looking for scale combat ARFs. Like a P-51, Spit or Zero. But thanks for the replies....

Black Thunder,
I am not sure how little you have when you say "don't really have room" but I build mine (House of Balsa, 1/12 scale p-51) on the kitchen table using a 12"x48" shelf board. When I quit building for the day, I just put it up on the top of the entertainment center. I never did get around to buying the adjustable shelf system I originally planned to buy, but I am still using it. My wife really likes it now that I don't leave my stuff on the kitchen table for days at a time.
The kit P-51 is the only one I have so I really can't help with the ARF. Sorry.

I don't even have a kitchen table 
The only usable work surface I have is the coffee table in the living room. I live in a tiny appartment and don't have a good work area.
