Hoobyzone firebird outlaw

I used to have on of these a few years back, but flew it in too high a wind one day and it got carried away and I was never able to find it silly me!

If you look carefully at the image below you'll notice these planes didn't have moving ailerons. Instead it was controlled by powering the left or right prop as needed. This made it surpisingly easy to fly even for a novice like me.

So anyway I decided I'd like another one and have had a look online and it seems it isn't made anymore. Does anyone know if there is an equivalent plane with a similar control system these days? And if not, what would you recommend for a novice who just wants something thats fun and easy to fly (but reasonable sturdy and unlikely to break easily). Thanks.

My standard answer is the v trainer from a company called flying wings- exactly the same control system, but made from epp foam- you can crash into virtually anything and they just bounce. If it does break, hot glue has it back together in seconds.
Search on youtube, there are plenty of videos.

Hasten to add I'm not connected to the company, merely a very satisfied customer.
