Hi,
I can't seem to find any information about the external dimensions of a Xenon XL (brochure says same as Xenon ...). Anyone knows how wide and long they are ? I am also curious to the width available in the 3 seater version between the "center beam" and the side of the door and length with the back seats removed ?
There seem to be space behind the seats in the back (or used to be in the one I flew in a couple years ago), is that space still available for luggage ?

Hope somebody can help,

Cheers,

Laurent

Laurent,

Have you looked at Celiers site?

I have, but I only found "Airframe dimensions identical to Xenon 2" in the PDF brochure of the Xenon XL.
It looks like the technical manual (which probably has that information) needs a password to be downloaded. I guess it is reserved for actual owners.

Dear Sir,

The Xenon XL has a longer cabin for 15 cm, and a longer tail for 20 cm. The triangular position of passengers is ideal, and leaves room to all. It is like the Smart concept, small outside, big inside.

Raphael, are you doing a 51% build kit XL for the US?

Thanks, is there a technical drawing with actual dimensions to check for "cargo" space availability ?
I am also interested in outside dimensions to check if and how many could fit in an ISO container for deployment.

Hello,
>we start make nice sales of the Xenon XL

I am glad to hear that. How long does it take to get one after ordering ?


even the latest version in carbon Xenon XL 2C.

Can you tell us more about that version ?


What is the size of that ISO container ?

The standard width of ISO containers is 8 feet (2.44m ), the standard heights are 8 feet 6 inches (2.59m), and 9 feet 6 inches (2.9m), and the most common lengths are 20 feet (6.1m) and 40 feet (12.19m). The containers are also manufactured in a number of different lengths from 24 feet (7.31m) to 56 feet (17.22m)

Which means there would probably be a problem with the rotor mast, is it easy to detach ?
