area 75 sq ft MAC 44.29" Aspect ratio 5.59/1
Not sure what the dihedral is off the top of my head. Seem to remember 8" at each tip? Wing loading is whatever you are figuring for the weight divided by the 75 square feet. My square footage is figured from a CAD drawing adapted from old 3 view drawings I scanned a while ago. I think the plans state 78 square feet, but it depends on the wing tips you do or any other mods done. They will skew the other numbers a little also.
