In tinkercad you can set your build surface. Just set it it to the back of the motor mount and then make your cylindrical hole. It'll be angled correctly that way.
I am having trouble doing that in tinkercad could you please provide some more details on the steps needed.

I think that I worked it out.

FINALLY getting around to cutting and building mine as part of the FTCA24 Buildruary. I will probably have to redo my 3D prints, but am going to start on my all black stealth foamboard laser cut tomorrow.

If anyone is looking for inexpensive, perfect fit motors, for the "stock" 3D print files, I got these from BuddyRC for $5.99 ea.

Good suggestion, but it looks like none of my local libraries do it. One of them apparently tried out several years ago but stopped. Probably difficult for them to keep it running.

I saw somebody post a link to the Ender 3 Pro on sale for $200. Is that a good printer for what we mostly do here?
For 200$ just add another 50 and get the Bambu A1 mini. Best printer I've ever had and is wireless so no pesky SD cards. Full auto leveling and supports Ams.

Bambu lab is the way to go they make it so much easier to get into the hobby without a ton of tinkering

So I've been wanting the pnp version of this plane but $200 is just too much. I've downloaded the plans but don't have access to a 3d printer. Would like suggestions on how to scratch build this without any 3d parts. I guess I could build of the stick fusealage with foam board/plywood to attach the wings and electronics. Wish FT would offer a speed build kit.

You could use a 3d printing service to get the parts.

You could always ask here and see if someone near you is willing to print them for you.
