well... about funky flying:
the original airfoil is very thin
in my resized version it should be thinner than the 6mm depron available.
your wings seem very thick, compared to the scale of the plane
then, a biplane always interacts between both wings. the closer the wings are together, the more they interact. negativly.
because youre wing is quite thick, i believe you should take te upper wing more up.. or make the wing thinner.
less interaction. way less drag.
next thing, it looks like your upper and lower control surfaces arent moving equally
this also could create weird behavior
as for incidences, my wings are at 0 degrees. so is my canard.
my canard should be at 3 degrees, so it can stall before the main wing does
in my case, the plane stays stable, until it isnt ;-)
comes almost straight down.
but, the engine pulls 1 kg and more, plane is 550 grams AUW, so no problemo.
pics... i have got 1, not online ;-)
this thing hasn't seen the camera a lot..
to afraid to jinx the thing with a lot of photo's..
i will look. but it looks like youre first version, minus the landing gear
