4 star 60 dimensions
Hey all,
Well I am faced with 2 months stuck in a hotel halfway across the country from my family so I decided to build a new model. I am going to build a 4*60. I plan to basically make an arf and do the final assembly when I get home. I need to make a crate to send the two wing panels home in and need some dimensions. I know the wing is 71 inches long but i need the chord length. With and without ailerons and the wing thickness. I need to make the crate 62 linear inches (L+W+H) or smaller since that is the biggest that the airline allows without paying a LARGE fee. Thank you very much for your responses.

RE: 4 star 60 dimensions
Wing area of 920 divided by span [71] equals 13 for the chord including ailerons. I don't know the other dimensions but it might be possible to make it work.
