The wings are about ~750mm each, and the fuse/wingroot is about ~200mm wide. You're looking at ~950mm from starboard root to port tip with just the port wing attached.
The wing is a single electrical connection and two machine screws after sliding on/off of the carbon spars.Live Q&A every Tuesday and Friday at 9pm EST on my Twitch Livestream

Big is cool, but it does present challenges for transport. We've tried to make it as straightforward as possible.
In response to a few PMs, here are pictures of the battery bay. It's quite cavernous. The ply floor is about 100mm wide. Like the Tomcat, the model will CG with the Admiral 6s 4000, but the A-10's bay is wider, taller, and longer, so we've tested 5000s and 6000s in with needing to modify anything. I will be ordering some 8000s to evaluate how they fit, just to test the high end of the size range. I anticipate needing to dremel out some of the underside of the instrument panel to allow for clearance on the front battery, and scooting the rear battery rearward to the bulkhead. Ten minute EDF flights seems achievable since I'm at 5 minutes on the 5000 with an appropriate flight profile.
