That will be very cool. Just for reference, look at the pics of my Sky Fly Max, it is just a hair under 9 cm at it's widest point (outside dimentions). This sucker is going to be a big ol' blimp, w/tons of luggage room... Part that always gets me about HobbyKing is the shipping.

Increasing wingspan to 1.82m and width to 9 cm makes lot of sense, Hope this will prove to be another good replacement. Thanks Crash for bringing it to our attention.

Hobbyking has put the following text in the product description:

Note: Production plane will have a wingspan of 1.82m and fuselage internal width increased to a total of 9cm width. Photos will be updated upon arrival.

I guess that will make this plane more suitable for the gear we want to put into it.

I think you are better off piecing together a Sky Fly Max (below), but if you could get the main wing as a spare part, I think it would work great on the Sky Fly Max fuse.

There is no space for any thing else unless you want your AP gear to hang some where outside of fuse. :) It is not replacement of skywalker IMO

I think this link makes more fuss that the small foamie:

Hello, someone has set the little interior space that has this plane?
If things are not mine, but I think that this airplane has skywalker quality or space, I think the skywalker is the ideal platform for a UAV, just a little more size would be good but not so soon after the EasyStar and sales success, the skywalker.
