Lots of WOW factor in that design, James! I agree, kit potential!
One thing to consider, though, is the landing on a 12" parachute. Those trailing probes are going to hit first if the recovery is 'traditional': HARD IMPACT.
I'd suggest a 16" or even a 20" (with spill) for this bird. The minimum would be a 14" if you could figure a way to recover flat (horizontal) instead.
