Hi,



I've searched through the messages and found a variety of dimensions so I though I would check.



Can anyone tell me the total length of an XS Mono sat on its trailer (i.e from the front of the trailer hitch the rear most point of the trailer / aircraft.  I'm just planning out a new garage build and want to make sure the finished article would fit inside on the trailer.



Thanks,



Phil

Hi Phil,



6m spinner to tow ball, but as you know mine is a home build trailer but

fairly close in design to the factory one. Also my garage door is standard

up and over and the mudflaps/wheels (2020mm) just squeeze through. 



Also be careful with the height as I learnt one day, unless the tow ball is

as low as it can go on the jockey wheel shaft, the rudder will loose the

argument.

You will be happy if your garages´s free lenght is 7 metres or more.

So you are able to circle your XS easily.

I have only 6 metres and so I have to locate the trailer with OH-XRT (XS) a little bit diagonally.



Doors´ openings (twin garage) are 2,44 m wide and free height is only 2,15 m.

I would love to have more space - it is very easy to broke for example fin strobo or especially plane´s gull wing doors if forget them to be open position. The prop blades (three blades) must point to "2", "6" and "10" when moving the trailer in or out.

Thanks for the info.  Looks like 7m is the luxury then and 6m is the 'just fits' option.

Thanks,

Phil
