You can build the S7 as per the manual and end up with a terrific plane. On the other hand, many people have made a variety of changes in an attempt to make the plane fit some specific needs. You can find aircraft that have had  changes to the baggage compartment, to fuel capacity, the landing gear and much more. Below are just a few changes that I’ve tinkered with. Others have done much more significant mods.
