My friend had some of these in metal and asked if I could remake in plastic. I did, and tried PLA, FLEX, PC, and PETG. The PC he said worked the best by far. I guess that's no surprise.
The design he sent in metal had no reinforcement between the tab and the arm, since the metal is plenty strong enough. I cracked several trying to get them off the print plate, so I decided to make some that were “reinforced”. Basically I added a big glob of plastic at the bent. They look far more ugly, but they're far stronger, and I assumed no one would see them as they're inside the plane.
I included gcode for the various styles. Message me if you want the fusion files.
