These are the same kits as what Northwest Hobby Tech used to sell. Easy to build, very strong, and they fly well. The only problem I have had with my Y model (besides trying to get the ST-3000 to run right) is the wheel pants being fairly fragile. Other than that I like my Y and hope to get it in the air again soon, hopefully with a gas engine.

All of the above, they go together easy, and fly great.

Below is my model Z. It's 1/3rd scale, 85", 24 lbs, and powered by a Brison 3.2 ci engine.

Don,

Give this a try, it's the link to the website for Jack Devine Models. Prices are probably not current as the website is still being updated, but pretty much everything else should be okay. Lots of photos there too. You'll feel like a kid in a candy shop.
