Hey, that is one great job! No one else knows what it takes to accomplish it, one has to build it. I didn't put the wheel strut covers on mine- the old plastic did not hold up- maybe I'll fabricate some from balsa like you did.. Yours look so good. I'm nervous flying mine, now. But the first flight was a THRILL. My O.S. 61 SF, w/12x5 prop, does a good job of powering the plane-it's not supposed to "hang".
good job - it was worth the effort!!!!!!!!!
