Default Wing Dimensions

Hello!

Can anyone provide the dimensions of the wings (7a) after they are completed on the jig? I'm wondering if I can actually get the out of my basement once they are done and out to the garage. Or if I need to just build them in the garage from the get-go.

Thanks!
Ryan

Ryan,
Without the wingtips my 8A wings measured approx 9' 2" + about 5" for the main spar by about 50" from leading edge to aileron brackets. Leaving off the brackets until you move it to the garage will save you about an inch or so.
