After looking at the E.51, I think WJPearce nailed it.

I can't help but wonder, though, if the Czechs borrowed some design elements from the Italians like Caproni, Savoia Marchetti and so on. It seems that the manufacturer of the E.51's engines (Walter Sagitta) even exported a radial model to the Italians for use in the Savoia Marchetti SM.86 so there was certainly a connection.
 
I do not know the history of the Praga E-51, but it reminds me of a fixed gear Fokker Mercury. I would not be surprised if the Czechs were inspired by several sources.

Below is the next challenge. My apologies if the aircraft has been posted before.

Let me be perfectly clear, it is not a Let. US design
