I don't see why not, looks like a fun build. Also how long have you been in the hobby? I thought you were a noob but it looks like you know what you are doing with this one.

I am kind of a noob. I built my own RC stuff before airplanes, and discovering foamboard brought an exciting new medium to work with.
My flying skills... well they are almost non-exsistant. I'm hoping that build-ruary will get me to fly more!
EDIT: I'm kinda making up the kitfox as I go, using a three-view drawing as my guide.

Of course! I don't think you even need to ask that question on this forum, it's just a given that someone will want plans
Yes, of course!

HELP
So, I've decided to call this the Master Series Kitfox because of the building style. Because of this, it is also heavy. I'm trying to keep it light, but I'm worried about the wing loading. I was looking and it sounds like it will be between the corsair and bushwacker with like 11-12 oz/sq.ft. Mainly why I'm concerned is that I want to be able to use a "B" Radial motor with 9x4.5 prop, but I don't know if it will be enough thrust. Advise from someone more experienced than me would be appreciated.

Now I know that can be hard to make sense of, so here's another picturewith a basic idea of these ribs and spar:
You should be fine.

You should be fine, but if you really want to keep it light you could remove the paper from some more of the internal structure. I think that a plane of that size should be great on a c pack, but like The Hangar said you should be fine.
