ARF tow planes are a little tough to come by. If I wanted to get a tow plane now I would just get a Pegasus from Derstine and put a DA 100 on it. You will have a tow plane capable of towing just about anything (including a 10-meter, 67 pound SB-10) that will be a true workhorse.
For a scale plane the Wilga's are hard to beat. The 1/3 scale and 1/3.5 scale Wilga's John has are very nice. Not ARF to be sure, but nice. I would avoid a glow powered plane. Fuel cost and reliability issues. Gas power is virtually bullet proof and offers great cost benefits.
