After a lot of attempts and sometimes painting and a little love, it ended up like this.

You're welcome :thumbup:

Myself personally, I'd love a tulip system for a firefly.

No, it's not the model you see the most, I've personally always liked it, maybe because the idea is so crazy :D

Out of left field yes, but not that outlandish.

Thank you for posting the videos, RKRC. Perhaps sometime I can try doing so, but right now I have nothing spectacular like yours.

Nice build. Was the calliope a small scale kit you upsized and printed or was it made in 1/16th originally?

I'm more into making small videos than having pictures taken and or I put pictures together for a video.
