I still need to solder the cam, vtx and XM+ wires, but I was so excited to share this, before I go to business trip, so here it goes! XD

Anothet Floss 2.1 build, since i have many frames in my storage :P
This is a hybrid with 6" rear arms.

Canopy is a remix from the TeamStandoffs hd cam canopy: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3015546
Arm protectors are a remix from KevPV design: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2874494

My versions of crash flip fin, Canopy with AXII mount, 19mm cam mount and crash flip fin attachment, arm protectors, cap holder: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3516446

I used the Unify VTX mount/R-XSR mount: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2511041

Printed the canopy using gray ColorFabb nGen CoPo. It feels strong enough to handle the crashes.
All red parts are printed from signal red 98A TPU.

very nice! if you searching for ideas, it would be a pleasure for me to see a "tron legacy bike canopy" (probably the driver would be a good cam protecter. integrating leds could be a chellenge)
