Don't know about the YC 14, but I do know there is a kit of the Russian version
of the same 'engines over the wings idea' (whatever that was called) by one of the East European model manufacturers.
I've seen builds of it in various Brit magazines.

The russian Antonov An-74 used the same engine configuration to use the "Coanda effect". Roden has a 1/72 kit of that aircraft.

I don't know anything about a kit of the yc-14 however.

Okay, I've found it as the Antonov An 74 (civil version) or the An 72 (military) or even the An 71 (AWACS) by Eastern Express in 1/72nd scale or 1/288.
If memory serves, I saw a recent pic somewhere of the YC 14 cocooned in the desert.
Which begs the next question, what became of the other one, the YC 15?
