If you look closely at the pic were I got my original idea for this diorama,you will notice that this backyard flier has an unusual design for aileron placement.They are large squares hinged to the trailing edges of the front leading edge spar. .Wing warping had been patented by the Wright's during this era and most American builders were forced to re-think the whole thing for fear of lawsuits.
The fuselage looks to be tubing of some sort and not bamboo like the Curtiss airplane,although it could be wood bent to shape.
