Hey guys I'm trying to build a chaos fire raptor and want to try my hand at scratch building one.

Can anyone tell me the length and width of a fire raptor please?

Its an extension of the stormraven so i'd start with that!

Yep I know, and my ds9 runabout idea was too big for a stormraven hence thinking of something as a fire raptor

I'm trying to remember, mine's in a closet back at home and I don't have it in front of me to measure. It's not as tall as the Stormraven and it's a bit longer/wider, say 12-14" long, 8-10" wide?

Cool thanks AnomanderRake, means if I get stuck and cant get it finished I can use my run about

I've just measured my Storm Eagle (which is the same chassis) and it is 10" from the tip of the engines to the ramp at the front.
It is about 9" from the furthest point on the back of the hull to the same point at the ramp.

You have a wingspan of just under 11" and hull width of 2.5" at the bottom and 2.75(ish)" at the top. It is about the same height, except at the part near the cockpit where it is 3".

Hope that helps.

Cool thanks dude. Shall look at getting it started after Christmas
