Managed to do a little checking on this, they are different, but the designer of mine was involved in yours, so that may explain certain features!

Thought it might be from the trails I've seen on the box!!

Florav 4302 No.2
That'll do me mate (despite the typo )

It is the Florov 4302 (and pretty sure it's the No.2 airframe)
