A comprehensive article about CAO.200,CAO.500 & CAO.1000 is on Avions magazine No.235.
 
CAO 200's small, auxiliary vertical fins indicate that the tail arm is too short or the central fin is too small to maintain directional stability (yaw).
Those after-market fins are often installed on Cessna, DeHavilland, etc. floatplanes to compensate for the extra side area of floats forward of the centre of gravity.

Hi,

In issue 236 of Avions (September-October 2020) there is a photo of a wind tunnel model of the CAO 1000. It looks like the wind tunnel model of the CAO-500, but with a more profiled frame (especially the windshield) and with the wings of the CAO 200 (and, of course, no auxiliary vertical fins and no floats)
 
On this link about the story of the ONERA (the French NACA/NASA) we can see (page 75) that the wind tunnel model of the CAO 1000 was tested in 1939 (file number 477/E)

CAD CAD-810 dive bomber project (France. 1939).
The CAO-810 nose-down bomber was to use the Hispano-Suiza 12Y 89 engine with 1200 HP or the Hispano-Suiza 12Z turbocharged 1300 HP. It will not have time to be developed.
The author of the drawing is Sosthène-Waroff Billault. Drawing made from the factory plans.
