Hi all,
As you prop can see i am new to this site and "hobby". lets start.... i am busy with my own UAV design and project but from what i have red there is a lot of stuff you should consider in building your own UAV. Sooo much calculations i am brain farting ;) !! Just one question my design is.. length of the aircraft is 1.5m and 20cm in diameter now i want to know what WINGSPAN would work best on that length of an aircraft and what should the wing cord measurement be....Any help would be much appreciated. Thanx in advance.

Well, keep the wing-loading in mind when designing a plane. Too high, and the plane will be hard to control and have a high stall speed. Too low, and the plane will be overly affected by wind.
