It's keeping the wings up front, right?

Good! Go on!

@Old Wombat; sure it will have the moustache wings! otherwise it'll be a canard..ow, then it is a canard....sorry joking with words...

Most PSR done! Too bad dust entered the cockpit and is now sticking to the inside of the canopy. Think the airbrush will solve that..

Nice.

Payen’s fléche series are classifed as tandem-wing rather than as canard aircraft,
ditto the Miles Libellulas and the Delanne designs.

Wowee, that DOES look good, as Chris said.

Wonderful with this canopy-inside-fin layout!

Did that prop come from a helo main rotor!?

Love Payen designs. Keep it going

Thank you gentlemen.

@ Caveman the prop came from an Noratlas.. it is a tad too big. Probably have to settle for something smaller in diameter like a p-63, p-51 or Spitfire Mk9 prop..

Will you have the model like "in flight" (no problem) or with undercarriage (requiring long long legs)?
