Thanks for your suggestion. I confirm that I used the correct dimentions that you suggested, but Hubble is so big that the solar arrays appear more little than they are effectively. I used to build this model an original sketch that I found on Official Hubble SiteJust one thing: The solar arrays are to short. They should be nearly the same length as HST itself. My guess is that you based the length on photos of the current solar arrays which are shorter than the original sets.
The original sets of SAs had two blankets which were 2.3505 m wide and 6.055 m long. The current set of SAs are 2.174 m wide and 2.568 m long.
Sorry, I don't understand what you mean for "WIP status" (english is not my prime language, "WIP" stands for?). I intend to make available this model ASAP. Obviously please be patient because we (F.O.I.) are working also on Eridanus, on Galileo II and other projects.Please don't keep this in a perpetual WIP status..
The dimensions I posted was for each blanket(old SAs) and each panel frame(new, current SAs). So total length of the old SAs are 12.11 m and the total length of the new current SAs are 5.136 m.Thanks for your suggestion.
