Because the panels are actually curved and not flat, I printed them standing up with support on the print bed only (not support everywhere). Came out great on the first run. Here's a screenshot of how I had them set up on slic3r.

I've seen in this thread that some folks have downloaded the STL files for the L-29 Albatros parts. I private messaged a few to see where the files are located but got no response. Does anyone know where these files (and any other ones) are located?? I saw in previous posts that they were going to be uploaded here on Hobby Squawk. I know about Thingiverse.com,
Thanks!!!

The L-39 files can be found on the Support page of the L-39 on MRC:

Probably another week or 2. Making final tweaks for sectioning the parts, and then I will need to do the test prints.
It wouldnt be able to scale down for the F4 since the part has already been designed around the freewing attachment hardware. you can keep the existing scale, though it will be ~10% oversized when installed on the Phantom.
apmech1 made a simple TER for the F4, as another option for the Phantom:
check out his other parts too, since he made a bunch of ordinance for the Phantom
