This model has been on my to-do list for quite some time, but I haven't yet found the opportunity to focus on it.

The PDF files below are formatted for A3 printing. The final build will be approximately 60 cm long and 30 cm wide. It will be powered by two 380-size motors for propulsion, along with a 90 mm ducted fan for lifting.
