You can get something close to a short kit. Start with George Miller plans (1/9th scale) from Scale RC Models and have the ribs and formers laser cut. You can get many of the molded parts from either Scale RC Models or Fiberglass Specialties. The plans are based on ducted fan power, but I'm sure they could be modifed for turbines, although I don't know what those mods would have to be.

Here's a link to my list of sources for this model. There are also links to any A-10 models and/or plans that I'm aware of. It's a short list!

There are some errors in the plans and one or two modifications that I would recommend. On the same site as above there are some construction notes with the details.

Hope this helps.

The Mibo A-10 is absolutely awesome! I have had the privilege of seeing Bob Levine's up close and it is a stunning aircraft.

Here's a video of it -> http://www.rcuvideos.com/view_video....0338c253d9c177

If you're looking for something smaller and EDF powered, take a look at Wade Joos' A-10 for twin 90mm EDF units.
