So I accuired an Inspire 1 that was in pretty rough shape, stripped it down barebones, and looked it over to figure what all was needed to rebuild and get airworthy again. Long story short the X3 board was trashed, was able to source a X5 board for a good price, but was missing the front mounting bracket.... Next to impossible to find this part by itself, but dug around on Google and was able to find a Guy on Inspirepilots.com that 3D printed some front and rear brackets. Joined that site and messaged him, paid him, and a few days later had the mount I searched High/Low for all over the interwebs. The quality Is amazing, the fitment is great and saved a bunch by not having to purchase a whole new board for just a bracket. For the technical specs, my stock bracket from another bird weighs in at 7.5 grams. This new 3D printed bracket weighs in at 6.5 grams. Still need to mount up a X3 and put the bird in the air to see how it performs, but Im guessing will be just like OEM.

here is the thread I had found, and Calde315 is the guy to contact if your in need of one

No, still praying someone will throw me a bone.  I dont get what the big deal is, three or four people claim to have the file but nobody will share the file or is willing to print and send me one.  I've offered money for both and no one seems to care.
