It needs to be about 70 or so inches wingspan and capable of handling a turbine.

regarding thrust tube lengths and intake sizes.
i am thinking of intakes in the wing leading edges and a single exhaust out of the rear of the fuselage.

I have three and a half turbines but none of them will fly a plane that size.

I have a Lander 68mm fan in my Lander F9 that i cannot get to fly, with a hand launch it just flops to the ground, so i built a dolly for itand gave it a possitive angle of attack and it still will not lift, this is on 3and 4S lipos, i know they fly and fly well but i cannot get this one to even get airborn

well i have cut the first former/wing brace for the edf.
thats a 75mm internal diameter edf in there.
the fuselage and wing will need a complete redesign to build this one.

Right have have an update shall we.
Basic wing frame is built and i am playing with the edf fitting location.
this is the front of the mount incorporating the wing brace along the twin spars.
Second support/mount and the tail end of the exhaust.
the exhaust will be planked from behind the unit to just proud of the rear former.
the l/e will be cut away and this is where the intakes will be made.
two triangular intakes either side of the fuselage giving about 40 sqcm total intake area.
