Default RE: Has anyone scaled up a Guillow kit for glow or electric?

I met a fellow last year in the Wattflyer forum who both enlarged them and also built them stock then made them into RC electrics. He didn't enlarge them that big, {the 80 incher} but kept them in a range like a 40 size. I was impressed with him doing them stock and installing RC gear, I have a heck of a time getting them to fly with rubber band power. I still enjoy building them but have never tried to RC one. The fellow on WF stated he liked the challenge of flying the little ones and they are a hand full. I'm just getting into electric power now and may try one in the future.
