@Wildthing - Rhino is a good package - you will have fun flying this one!
When I get stuck I have my guy Bimo in Indonesia that is very proficient with it , what takes me 2 weeks to do he does in 2 days. He has always been doing things like this, full animation and the list goes on. He is a owner in a big computer company down there . He has some software that he also will run the models through to see how the airflow is, basically something like a wind tunnel . I tried it and my computer is fairly strong but any tests in there for me would take 24 hours plus to see the results, he has really big computers :D .

Well 4 of the main sections are printed, one more to go. :)

I think my hot end block has a very slight leak through the threads, little brown droppings of burnt pla every so often . For some reason to white pla just seems to print like crap compared to another color in the same brand , ticks me off. I will burn up this roll on motor mounts and other little things like that where looks are not quite as important.

Well canopy is half designed, need to still build in the latch mechanism mount and then slice it into 2 pieces to fit the printer :) .

Oh and I did get all the foam parts laid out into pdf plans and then are off at Staples being printed.
