Finally, I've added an X-Wing mode switch that mimics the functionality of R2-D2 on the Kenner toy of yesteryear. Simply, slide the detail section behind R2-D2 forward and back. This change replaces all previous STL files.

Take a look!

Inspired by these works:

I went for a version with working wings and a bit more of the subtle details.

The model is kind of small and has walls as thin as 1mm especially on the engine intakes, so if you have a larger print head you want to scale up the STL when slicing. I used a .5 nozzle and printed this scaled to 120%
