The wide front looks weird; and it looks more like a boat; but if I'm envisioning it right, I am hoping this will end up looking close to the original

Nothing wrong with a little b(l)oat.
Especially with a 'turtle'deck.
Fly it before Gusty gets there.
His style is overhead keel, underslung mast...
(Just saw he is giving away a Tx/rx. Good deed)

Hahahah... I built the Extra to move on from level flying but guess I need more practice before I can do justice to this...Gusty sir sure can take it on a joyride, upside down while we go head over heels on his flying style  Hats Off


The original canopy I made wouldn't fit well after covering, so changed it into two parts, the engine cover is now separate...

Two 2" wide stripes of white vinyl will run by the sides, along the length of the fuse, to cover up the untrimmed vinyl

Thanks Sam,
I am at ~2.4 Kg AUW at the moment. the cage structure with coro has significantly reduced the weight. A .46 may just cut through but a .55 size would have been the right engine for this build... (if you go back a few posts, i was putting a 2830 motor or something similar...  Giggle Giggle Giggle)

I realize this is no more a SPAD, its a CPAD, Complicated Plastic Airplane Design... Giggle

55, yes. A big prop will be good. Will fly on a 46, pretty well too at that, but for what it is supposed to do, a bigger prop is better I think

Hmm.. 2.4 is a bit on the heavy side for this bird as correctly spotted by Sanjay bhayya. I know its a bit too late, still for your next build you could consider a less wider fuze. I use bamboo skewers of the right size pushed through coro formers with a touch of epoxy in key spots for strength and rigidity. In your case the landings and cruise speeds will be a bit hot.
