CA models Widebody 60 is my choice for a plane that will pattern and 3D.

How about this plane ?
It is 775 sq inches on a 64" span- weighs under 7 lbs inc a .91 YS
OK- what is it?
Note : you have to be over 21 to figure it out.

Looks like a Runaround or a Runaway to me.

Runaway - This is one I did for old friend -
The owner does not fly 3D but there is no reason it would not do any maneuvers -with larger surfaces
Wing loading is just under 21 ozs to the foot .
Having built a few of the latests ARFs -I don't see why these older designs with larger control surface won't work just as well.
As far as I can tell wingloading and power counts 9 of the 10 top reasons for good performance .
The rest is eyewash .

So are they still available?

RE: Pattern/3D Plane??
 

The kits are -from a local friend -- this one is on it's way to Maine - so you may see it -

I plan to be at the Bush Pilots Pattern Classic at Waterboro in August, so I will look for the Runaway. How about a contact for the friend with the kits?
