@SP0NZ or @Splinter189 is there STL's released for the BDF or is it still under wraps? I can't wait to get my hands on the files, the printer is waiting.

Well, I have designed a prototype based on what I know about the BDF. I probably wont have time to design or build a plane before Flite Test releases one so if anyone thinks they can build a plane around this model, I can share the STL. Johns son said they are using a 2208 with a 4" 3 blade prop on a 4S 5000 battery. That is for a Twin, so if anyone can design and build a plane to use only one, you could probably get away with a smaller capacity battery. Let me know.

It'd be great if you could PM me the STL! I don't have any plans for an aircraft to try it out on, but I'll try and print it. Can't wait till the jets come out!
