Mix-and-match really because propellers follow US practise and come in inches, while stock material here and elsewhere in the world is retailed in metric. A good example is that centre-section, which at 20" will suit a half-metre square shear-web.
I've come over a bit Jackson Pollock today and transferred sketches from an A5 pad to lining paper taped to the floor. I was interested to see that Tesla still model in clay at full-scale, a method dating back a century which auto-manufacturers still adhere to today for the final 'look and feel' of each model.
Similarly when ships like the Titanic were designed, each cross-section or 'station' would be chalked out at full-scale on the floor like this prior to their engineering.
The overall dimension here stands at 42" if you include the overhang of each motor, but discount the arc of its propeller. Folding two-blade propellers are slowly making their way up to the larger drones, so it is conceivable that an airframe like this might yet be stored in a four-foot box.
