Also, do more research, don't just take my ideas as gospel. I'm guessing from 50 years of experience. So you might want to find and contact a free flight group that could give you even more info as far as scaling up and what you need to do to scale up a Guillows model.
After looking at a p-47 with 30.5'' wing span, it seems quit big for a .049 cox engine. are you sure that that is the size i should go with?
