3D 60" Balsa Kits

[Old Tin Man]

OK, I have been looking for a kit to put together this winter when I am off work. I want a kit that is laser cut if possible and a 3D plane. Something along the lines of a Edge, Extra or a Yak with a wing span about 60".

The problem is that all the kits now are ARF's and I want to build a plane. Seems that there are quite a few gliders and smaller trainer planes that I could get but very little along the lines of a 3D ship. I have built 3 gliders and 2 trainers in the last year and want to keep going.

Any help would be great.

Thanks
Joe C.

You might check out some of the Stevens Aero kits.

Thanks Johnson, I should have looked there. I have there Mudbug, it's fun to fly. Never thought about a 3D ship from them.

Anyone else have an idea?

Here you go a really great list of balsa kits I am sure you will find something that will tickle your fancy.

I suspect these might be listed in Gramps reply but if not check out:

I have not built one from them as yet but I think that will be on the short list for this winter. Mountain Models seems to have an excellent reputation form the postings I have seen

They are somewhat smaller than what you are looking for however, looks like a max of about 47 " wingspan

I have been to the stevensaero.com page several times. And this is definitely not a dig it really is a question

What makes these kits worth so much more then mountain models or house of balsa as an example.
