Orlik makes an "Ass-ender" in 1/33rd scale:

022. XP-55 Ascender [022] - 18.00z? : ORLIK - MODEL KARTONOWY

I have the kit. Not too bad, typical Orlik quality.

I have the Orlik kit. It looks nice, but according to Billy it has some major flaws on the rear of the fuselage. He had to do a lot of fixing to make it work. I think he said that the rest of it went fairly well. It's worth a shot. I'm just not good enough to start something like that yet.

I've got this one on my list of ''oddballs'' to design for Fiddlersgreen. I even have it started in Rhino3D.
