Taking into account the dimensions of the tip, and the curvature of it's grip, I settled on 85mm for the length of the body.

I printed in resin a first prototype and was seduced immediately. It feels great in the hand and although somewhat far, buttons are still accessible when needed. Unless I need to shift components on the PCB, I'll stick to this design.
