OK, this years rules are out, slightly different twist to encourage
design variation this year.

While the wing span is limited to 40 cm max, the wing chord is
unlimited. Except you get a bonus at state contests for 6.5 cm max
chord and at nationals for 5.5 cm max chord.

Stab limited to 20 by 6 cm, 20 cm prop, 7 gm max, 1.5 gm rubber.

OK, so my question. How should one adjust the distance between wing
and stab as the chord changes?

I'm fairly sure equations are somewhere on the web to estimate this,
and variations have been discussed in this list. Pointers to those or
appropriate key words to search also appreciated.

Thanks,
