Everything looks good! The only things that worries me is that even though there is a tail, the tail is so close to the CG that basically it probably could be considered a flying wing. The KFm3 tries to mimic a real airfoil and flying wings with standard airfoils need reflex to fly properly. Therefore, flying wings with KFm3 needs reflex to fly properly. The reason for that, in my opinion, is that with an airfoil, air is directed down. This pushes the back of the wing up. Without reflex, the wing would go straight down as was seen in my testing. The reason why the KFm2 does not have that problem is that the supposed vortex already ends before the wing ends and the airlow straightens out so that the air at the end of the wing is not deflected down. So, in my opinion, I would either make more room on the bottom sheet of the wing for the air to stabilise or have some uptrim on your elevator when you fly.
Also, I agree with colorex that elevons would probably be better.
Also, where are you going to put the vertical stabilizer? If it is going to fool the birds into thinking the plane is also a hawk, I would use a V tail as colorex suggested or a vertical stabilizer made of clear material such as plastic.
