So I chose The Pilatus PC-7. It has 3 wheels and is simple to build because it has a narrow fuselage. 

The Wing was the only thing that was difficult to make but you will see in the build log how I solve the problem.

The flight video will come soon. I test it one time but the CG was not correct. But the plane tracks great. But the funniest thing is the front gear - it makes the plane so much fun to drive, you don't want to start!

I haven't drawn the Plans yet but if you want plans I will make some.

If more Pilots want to build my PC-7  I will also make a Build video for you.
