Hi guys,

I've been giving some serious thought to purchasing a Lepton EX kit to upgrade my Voyager E. I was hoping that one of you might be willing to take some measurements for me or direct me to a spec sheet as I want to see if the Lepton will fit in my JR Ecureuil/ASTAR fuselage. I will be using this as a scale machine.

Thanks.

I'm getting about 21.5" from shaft to shaft. Per Hirobo, the MR diamater is 37.6" and the TR diameter is 6.3". Let us know if it fits.

Well, the shaft to shaft measurement is within half-inch of the VE, the tail blades are on the same size but the boom braces might be an issue, as might the heights of the boom compared to the Voyager E.
