Default A-10 warthog

I looked all over the fg web but no luck!
here it goes

It's a prop driven A-10 from the Model aviation magazine tha was published some time ago, I built this kit from scratch and turned out to be pretty cool sport scale design, then I crashed it and that was that,then the years went by and here I go again looking at the plans thinking about, building it all over again, and this time I'm just going with just 1 engine on the nose and makaing it as simply as possible since it's a sport scale, why not make it a sport scale! If anyone have an idea please feel free to pitch in!
here is some pictures of the first A-10
