Span =211 inches F
Fuselage length = 98 inches
F
Height = 39 inches F
Fan Diameter = 24.5" F
T. Wing area = 80.7 sq. ft (factory)
mine figures proportionally less
Balance Point 47.25" from wing

-------------
the rest are estimates;
about 15% taper in wing and canard
from root to tip with all taper on the leading edge.
Wing root chord = 30.87 "
tip = 26.4 "
canard root = 27.5 "
tip = 22 "
Canard tip = 9.9 " ahead of wing
Leading edge
distance between average quarter
chord points 39.64 "
N.P = 41.5 inches ahead of T.E.
of wing
Balance Point = 18 3/8 " ahead
of Neutral Point
Distance from root to root at
fuse centerline = 39 inches
Fuselage estimated width = 24
inches, 19 at wing root
Rudder/Fins/Winglets are canted
out ward ~ 8 degrees from canard to wing
Rudder/Fins/Winglets- sweepback
