-Very large and very heavy at 21 grams
-Propeller blades too far above ducting
-Not enough clearance in ducting to house propeller
-Strut supports not in ideal position for structure
Prototype Model

Prototype Finite Element Analysis
-21 gram model
-Maximum of 5 microns displacement
-Too rigid for the application
-Too heavy, thick ducting
-Not an efficient layout for motor strut supports
-Lack of optimal leading of edge ducting design
-Assumption was that with 100% infill the printed model would be similar
