Strix Stratosurfer - Small Canopy by markqv

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

Finally finished up the small canopy shape for the Stratosurfer. There are two versions, one with a bolt on deck feature that fits my Pan and Tilts found on my Wiki here:

The second option is simply a plain canopy that you can carve up to fit your needs.
Both have a bevelled edge, copied from the original foam cover, which helps them fit nice and snug into the foam base. They have ventilation ports that can also be used for headlights. There is a mount piece which screws down to the plywood deck and is tapped to M3 for the hold-down screws.

Print Notes:
The canopy is designed to be printed right-side-up, as it sits on the plane.
The canopy shown in the pictures was printed in ABS at .2mm quality.
