Description

A few years back I purchased one of David Windestål's newly released Bicopters from RCExplorer (https://rcexplorer.se/). This was a very interesting RC build and a challenge to fly. However the carbon-fiber canopy made it very difficult to access the internal electronics. Thus I came up with a 3D Printable canopy that allows access to the internals while also acting a bit like a wing (provides lift).

Edit: Added a few extra files as someone may need them depending on their build. (Forgot to add these earlier due to an illness in my family) You'll have both a simplified and a modular design where the camera can be added / removed independently from the rest of the frame.

Printing 

Is pretty strait forward for most of the parts, using laying of 0.2mm with slightly higher than normal temps to ensure good layer adhesion. The removable camera mount will need some support but this largely depends on which orientation you've chosen. I printed mine from the side which at the time worked best for me. Most any material type can be used, yet for the project above Nylon worked out the best due to its superior impact resistance. (Printed using a friends MK3)

Note: Side panel needs to be mirrored and some of the parts use Aluminum stand-offs with M3 buttonhead screws.
