Anyway, hope more details come out about this carbon fiber printer because right now it seems a bit.. useless.

I actually have a few mini wings from crash test hobby and I can attest that their name is accurate wink I think my next large plane will be a skyhunter smile there's just so much room inside it's mind boggling...

I am curious what they use for that printer, though.. if its just merely carbon fiber in pla, then.. well I know what I wanna try when I get an e3d..

Well bummer... not like I had 5G's to drop on it anyhow with tax time here sad

Yeah, I have a couple UID's on fpvlab but lately use this one the most, don't have a zephyr like you... mostly multirotors and skywalker types and a few homemade oddball things wink
