What are the final dimensions and weight?

Himadri Roy

Sir the final dimensions are
Fuselage length: 64 cm
Wingspan: 104 cm
And total AUW: 650g
And flew it today however before I could take a video the plane came down and crashed badly. Looks like the servo gears and arms snapped and the control surfaces were rendered useless.
:( :'(
