You can make your own with coroplast and zip ties to hold you over. It can be done in less than an afternoon of work for about 15 Euros of materials, and the benefits are significant. That by itself is liable to reduce overall aero drag by 10% or more versus an uncovered spoked wheel.

I still do not understand why my attempts failed - and i have to improve the stiffness of the velomobile in order to make a better one like the tail made by the other guy.

Is it possible that the rear wheel is flexing and deforming over bumps and in corners? I had that issue with my custom build. The solution was to widen the rear wheel well housing enough to where there was no scrub when the wheel leaned.
