I am searching for wisdom and formulas for adding our longer wings to an existing fuselage.
Precisely, perhaps the need for a larger rudder. But because the ailerons are fine in their current use, the rate of roll is not a concern, BUT coordinated control is a vital concern.
(I might just add 5% surface area, because the fuse and tail are being integrated with longer wings. (36' vs approx 26').

Wings are "Lazair" high lift, strong and one of the best over many decades. Plus they are light.
Far 103 is a non issue here in Canada, but wgt is for "electric" 💡
