Starting to get ahead of myself! Realized I missed posting my aileron servo install, prep, and some finished product discrepancies found!

Looks good Nick!
Curious to know your source of the snake skin or whatever brand for the anti-chaffing wrap on the servo wires.

Printing is done. I think they’ll work nicely! Maybe a bit heavy. I used 10% infill, so they are basically hollow.

Was debating how and where to mount my LEDs for the tech aero and the AR switch. Both were different styles with the same 5mm LEDs and I didn’t care for either. So why not draw one up and 3DPrint one!?! From drawing to being printed in less than 45min I am thrilled with the outcome! Another reason to own a printer! Installed it with foam-tac. Pics are pretty self explanatory.

Printed parts look great. I'm loving designing and printing stuff and just made my first upload to thingiverse yesterday.

After understanding 3DP limitations and our own designing capabilities, the possibilities and designs keep presenting themselves. It's very rewarding to create from a thought or an idea. What if I could???.... eureka!

Speaking of uploading, I uploaded the LED holder last night!
