Default Yc-15

Hi I'm going to be starting to build a 1/13th YC-15 at the beginning of the year and I was wondering of I can get some help with some specs form the YC-15 (132' wingspan version). I have all of the basic specs of the aircraft, but I still need to know what type of airfoil the wing and T tail has, what type of landing gear, and any other random specs that anybody knows.

Thanks

there is a gentleman who has built one of these that attends KY jets, I'm sure someone here knows who this guy is and could you put you in contact with him.

I'm pretty sure that the one that was at Ky Jets was a C-17, wasn't it? The YC-15 looks significantly different.

Yes, you all are referring to Paul Appelbaum's scratch built 1/18th scale C-17 as seen at Kentucky jets the last couple of years.
