Due to height and front width issues with those mechanics, that's about the extent of the choices unless you pay Len to mold an Eclipse for you.

I had a Rapide Fuse on my Vigor years ago..

Really wasn't much to it. Similar to a stock Vigor canopy, except a little longer at the rear of it. Then the tail "Fairing" was pretty much a fiberglass tube. Kinda funnel shaped. Do you know any one that is good at laying up fiberglass? The rear where the tail joined the tail case had a plug cut to fit the inside of the rear of the "Fairing" with a hole cut out of the center, for the boom to pass through. It was split at the bottom for a pinch bolt to run through it to clamp it in place. Also had a slot cut horizontally for the pushrod to pass through. We just glued the horizontal fins onto the sides.
