In this episode of The Okayest Engineer, we take on the challenge of CNC machining foam to create the plug for a custom carbon fiber engine cowling. Inspired by the iconic look of the MD 500, this upgrade will give the helicopter a sleek, modern aesthetic. Watch as we shape the plug, overcome challenges, and finally mount it to the helicopter—seeing it come to life is an awesome moment you won’t want to miss. Stick around for a mix of engineering, creativity, and a glimpse into the transformation of the XE 290!
