Target of project
TL;DR: make F450 portable
I have F450, but it is inconvenient to travel with it. When mavic came out, wow what a great design. It should be possible to clone the design with 3d printing.
Even better, there are design for 3d printing. I wanted to convert my F450 to M450 (mavic in 450 size).
reuse components from F450
However, I had to modify original design to fit components of F450, and also had my own ideas:
try to keep clean (at least from outside)
try to have few parts to print (using support if necessary, that's the job of slicer, not designer) (potentially saving weight)
