So yeah, after some hours of frustration, I made another World War One plane, this time based off the B.E.2. It was a slow recon / light bomber and also an early fighter. It was introduced in 1912 and used throughout the entire war.
It was also used as a trainer and comms aircraft towards the end of the war.
My example doesnt look a whole lot like one but I made an attempt. Its slow (around 70-80mph cruise speed) and you'll need a downward slope or cliff to take off. It is however easy to fly and easy to land.
Have fun with my creation!
