I think your calculation is mostly right, Im sourcing arms as well now and the rules I follow are "side lenthg * 80% = arm length" (the google doc I think uses the same rule) and "angle of base to arm in maximum position should be bigger than 20°" I will by my arms from trid printing and then have 4-5 sizes there you could check for which machines they sell arms and how the dimensions are there. I am aiming for a base length of 50cm with 40cm arm, and this fulfils my rules.

The 80% rule is not really great to use. Its a rule of thumb. You want to know exactly how large you can print. Do some trig and calculate the minum angle to be 20 degrees. Add in your effector offset and you'll get something much closer to reality
