Note: only stats I could find on this plane were crew, range, engines and loaded weight (which I got from forum.valka.cz ) and I used the data of another plane of about the same weight to get the other stats. If anyone has more stats on this plane, it would be greatly appreciated.

Looking at forum.valka.cz, the Do-26 is actually lighter than the H7Y1.

... so the normal take-off weight of the Do 26 is 11,400 kg and that of the H7Y1 is 18,000 kg, a 6,600 kg difference. So in that case it would not be a licence built Do-26, but maybe an enlarged version of the Do-26 (since the Do-26 is mentioned in the H7Y text).
Considering that the Do-26 uses a more powerful version of the Jumo 205, that would mean that the H7Y1 would probably be a bit slower than the speed I used.
