Uploaded a video showing the final model and its operation! It was printed at 2X scale on a Makerbot 2nd gen at 0.2mm layer height, honeycomb infill.

EDIT: 11/03/16
I've just uploaded the pdf versions of the engineering drawings. The one labelled "Templates" is a set of to-scale drawings that can be cut out and glued on top of material to aid fabrication. Please note at 1:1 scale the model wingspan is 375mm. This model is as half scale of a real osprey so for a life-size model double all scales.

Also note: Thanks to some weird little computer thingy some of the drawings are on ASCI C size paper instead of A3 (annoying, right? Imagine how I felt when I found out!). I've marked these with "A3" and "ASCI C" in the file names. ASCI C is pretty close to A2 however you can "poster print" it across several sheets if you desire.

I've given no STLs of the feathers because you do NOT want to print those, they're all really thin and need twisting so they fold over each o
