Shultz' "Besenstiel" (Broomstick) glider

Seeking ACCURATE information regarding this early (1926) record setting German glider. NEED DIMENSIONS. Is current repro in German museum accurate? Seems to be an early "air chair" concept AND fits in with my bent for old aircraft.
TIA

You mean the Schulz (note the spelling, please) FS 3, I presume. And the museum in question is not the German Museum, but the Glider Museum at the Wasserkuppe. For dimension just check Wikipedia:
Besenstielkiste ? Wikipedia

Thank you Hans. Thanks for the corrections. Sorry about not being more specific about where the replica hangs. I don't speak or read German, so please forgive my spelling.

Would like to know if there is enough information available for an accurate flying repro?

TIA, again
charlie

It's at the Glider Museum at the Wasserkuppe.
