The best part of DIY is seeing something that only existed on a screen become something you can actually fly. Nice work!

Question what type of screw did you use and how did you get the screws mounted?

M3 hex screws from Amazon and I used a screwdriver

Did u embed a hole for the screws into the print ? I am trying to do a battery holder and the screws just dont work for it considered plastite screws

I’m really sure what your asking I cut the frame from carbon fiber with my cmc machine so the holes got cut out and I have standoffs that the screw into to hold everything together as for the green stuff that’s printed
