Without further ado, here are your Top 10 Winners for the Open RC Accessory Design Contest!

The judges loved the creativity of this design – a bull horn ornament that fits right into the nose of the RC. Great work by Ryan van Waes.
Keep your enemies in the dust with this laser attachment! Great design which makes for a quick print and keilum griffin included his print settings.
