This one's still modeled a little roughly but works well when I tested over the weekend. STL file is attached, exported units are in inches if they come out too small. I printed in PLA material on my home printer and have not had any break after multiple crashes. You do have to be careful to not over tighten the self-tapping screws compared to the molded plastic wing.

I used the smaller rollers from this Tamiya package:

Hi mate, just print a few of your wings are they look really nice! But the carbon fiber part that you have to insert inside it, doesn't fit. Do you have the same problem when you print it for the first time?

Thank you!!!
