For the best slight performance (and if you are building a replica bird) the wings of your craft should be wingspan=2x if x equals body length (each wing should be the length of the craft's body).

    It’s just what (for some reason) nature has as the optimal ratio for performance, and not so much looks @BACconcordepilot
