The scaled down wing has a length 8.3 time smaller than the original, so the UDL of 30kg/m^2 would become 30/8.3^4 6.3x10^-3kg/m^2 giving: dmax=(6.3x10^-3x0.9^4)/(8x16x5.72x10^-10) = 56455.283m. (Obviously too big) The area of the scaled down wing is 0.08m^2, therefore the mass I need to apply...

Changed, thanks
