Default need help, parkzone champ dimensions

i'm looking to build myself an airplane. and want to be roughly the same size of the champ, if someone could get me dimensions for wingspan and length of the plane nose to tail, aswell as the length of the wing (front to back)

this would be very helpful for me, I have all my materials and i've been itching to start building.

i'm an idiot, looked everywhere BUT parkzones website.

Specs:
Wingspan: 22.4 in (517mm)
Overall Length: 14.3 in (365mm)

I still need the front to back length of the wing if posible.

if any of you have built plane's before please feel free to share where you've got plans, I have yet to find a decent site with plans, and I dont want to build something that looks goofy (nutball)

Here's the best source of plans i've ever found:

Foamies (Scratchbuilt) - RC Groups

Here are a couple that I recommend:

Blu-Baby:
** Blu-Baby Primary Trainer ** Plans, Pics and Fun! - RC Groups

Oshkosh Special:
**"Oshkosh Special" with video and plans** - RC Groups

And if you like gliders this is a great one and can built with one sheet of dollar store foam board:

60" span motor glider renamed OSG! - RC Groups

Glad I could be of help. I've built all three of those planes and the Glider and Oshkosh are my favorites. Here's some onboard video of my first flight with it. (FYI i'm not a very good pilot)
