Build it

keep in mind the landing gear size - and the prop arc.

Deltas tend to take off and land at higher AOA than conventional designs. So size the gear to prevent a prop strike at around 10deg nose up or better.

Sure I did. It's very easy to check this with CAD . In this dept, I intent installing prop-guards, like those pictures below. What do you think ?
Did you see my question at the very beginning of this thread regarding using a SJ 50 in a pusher configuration ? Would it harm the engine by not being cooled enough by prop air-wash ?
