Certainly less modeled than the 172, and probably 150 also. Should be a good subject. BTW I recently flew the 29" Comet C150, which flew well with the scale NACA 2412 airfoil. The camera flubbed the video however. Using a scalish section versus flat bottom is one mod I'd think about, partly for appearance reasons as well as r/c flight. The 2412 was a pain to build however, so anything with a better Phillips works fine. It looks like the plan may actually have a scale like section, from what I can see. BTW I finally flew that little Sterling Fokker D8 today. Did surprisingly well!

I am in process of acquiring the needed supplies, but I,d like to finish My PT-17 before I start on the Cessna.
