The spads and everything are great but........they don't look like real planes. Sorry, but I like to fly WWII stuff. The Corospit is better but doesn't follow my train of thought. They are heavy and take some tome to assemble, plus you have to hunt down all the parts. My idea would eliminate the built time, increase durability, and be cheap! And also look very scale.
I think the Fuse, wing, and tail should all be made from this plastic. It can be done I'm sure. It just needs to be engineered correctly to work. Try lifting up one of those bats sometime, they are very light and strong!!!
All we need is some Taiwan manufacturer to pump them out! Or a big established company like World models to do it.
Also, special compartments can be molded in to protect all of the expensive gear.....the possibilities are truly endless.
I think we can do better....we have the technology!!!
