Fabulous work fokke and I am following with interest as I will need to make a scale spinner for my Mk V Spitfire when I build it,,,,, after I finish your 109. (that I will not be able to continue with just yet)
I think you are now going to fill with foam and shape??

The first model fly in France, Unfortunately I do not have more details ..
So I have several orders for bigger Spity , so I up the plans to 1/4 scale . One of my costumer want to use Kolm 150 cc, so I made the plans for this engine, off course can use other engines to
Here some pics , the first big kit will fly to Australia, so I hope the guy will post some details around the buiding proces

Yes I can rebuld all details for 1.7 scale but like the bigger 1/4 I do not have composite sowl and canopy .
Before several months I made 1/5.5 scale , for this size I have composite cowl , the model is around 2 meters

If you scaled to the same size as an existing kit like Top Flite or the old Royal/Marutaka then you could put out the short kit and plans and the buyer could order the cowling and canopy from another source whether it be Top Flite or Fiberglass Specialties who makes cowling to fit both the Top Flite design and the Royal/Marutaka and the canopy to fit the Royal/Marutaka..

Yes, for the Canopy can be done, but for the cowl I can;t make it because the shape of formers of the fuselage is probably different from other companies , So I can make make the cowl by wood ribs and stringers , and make 1/6 and 1/7 scale , then the guys have to buy just canopies
