Long link. Planes up to 1.6 metre span 3D printed.

That's a really cool way to create an plane. $20 for plans and they say it's only $10 worth of material so if someone local could print it for a reasonable cost it might be worth while. The P51 uses a 620kv motor and a 6s lipo with claims of up to 165 km cruising speed and 205 km limit. It would likely fly with other set-ups as it's under 700g complete without the battery.

I never crash, I just create exciting ways to meet the ground. After all, take-offs are desirable, landings are inevitable.

nice, the author is Michael Molitch-Hou, who now has joined the Enterprise In Space project, and did an awesome article for 3D Printing Industry -
