This is a wing strut for the [Maker Trainer 2 plane](http://lucasweakley.com/product/maker-trainer-2-kit/) by Lucas Weakley.
I built a few versions of this plane using 5mm foam and the wings are simply too flexible for the narrow body I put on there (instead of the rather flimsy one of the original design), so they kept snapping when flying for fun (with FPV) rather than for preservation.
To keep them from snapping, I very quickly designed and printed this strut. It's designed to fit diagonally on a 220x220 print bed.
Mirror (observe you do this on the right axis) and print again for the other side of the fuselage.
I printed in PLA and they hold out fine after an evening of burning some batteries and performing rolls and sharp turns.
Simply glue to the wing and body with CA or hot-glue - although be careful with hot-glue on PLA, as it easily starts getting soft.
Don't forget to post makes:)
