Default Please Suggest Wider (Fat) Fuselage Model Plane Plan

Hi, I am looking for a model plane plan which has wider (fat)fuselage. I would like to use it for model parachute drop. But not small parachutes, I would like to drop Hobbyking's 2.15m parachute. I need singleengine type model plane, any suggestion/free plan?
Regards,

How big is the parachute when it's rolled up and ready to pack? We'd need to know that before we can offer any suggestions.

One option is to start with a known good design such as a Sr Telemaster and just modify the fuselage to make it wider and deeper. Along the way you can build in your cargo compartment and drop door.

Hi BMatthews,

Thanks for your reply. After folding the parachute it’s comes around L18” x W12” x H12” just under the wing for better CG. Better if the model aircraft is high wing. HobbyKing is made of RipStop and it is 2.15m. There is one doll with this parachute which is not small and that is why I need so large cargo compartment.

Regards,
