Help! Has anyone built an SE 5 Biplane upscaled

I have an idea for a snoopy biplane, but the mini SE 5 is just too small. I'd like to build an upscale of this plan with probably a 40-50" wingspan.

Anyone ever done that, or have experience in upsizing FT plans?

What most people do to enlarge a plan is open the full size plan in Acrobat Reader and print the plan at whatever enlargement or reduction in size you want. After printing you have to compensate for the change in thickness of the foam board folds on the new plan size.

The SE5 in the video is a different design. The mini has a single sheet wing design, while the big one has a folded wing. I don't think the mini will hold up too well enlarged.

You could look at the unrauv SE5. It uses a C-Pack size motor.
