Or suspend the plane by the tips of the wings. GC ~65mm as you measure from the front edge of the middle wing section towards the tail of the plane.Nose additional weight: I had to add 142g on mine, but this can depend on how you position the battery inside the plane.Wing incidence angle: 1.5 degree (adjustable).I tested it with Prop savers as you can see in the pictures and video. Tip and propeller attachment: The standard bullet propeller adapter would look more towards the original shape of the plane.Brushless motor: ~300W/1000KV with 40A ESC or anything else that would result in ~1Kg of thrust with your propeller choice.Propeller: 8x4’’ ÷ 8圆’’ (depending on your altitude) I tested mine at 1600m above the sea level with 8x5’’.I would keep it smaller than 4000mA to save on weight, although I tested mine with a 4700 one. Battery choice: min4S (mandatory at this weight/ portance ratio).Overall weight: ~1200g (balanced and ready to fly with 4700mA 4S battery, heat shrink film on it and everything else).Length: ~600mm cowl edge to rudder edge (these dimensions depend on how you glue the plane together, calibration of your printer and your choice in the printed pieces).I have other RC planes and plane related parts: PLANEPRINT recommends to use Cura and to set the settings as in the table below.Own this and print it as many times as you want for only $99.00Ī reference assembly & flight video has been posted at the following link: That's why we decided on a system of five basic profiles that can be created once in Cura and then used to print all PLANEPRINT models.

They can be printed with any slicer that offers GYROID filling. Our later developments, starting with the SHARD, are specifically designed for LW-PLA and are constructed completely differently. These models require the Profile P3 and can only be sliced with Cura. For our earlier models, we solved this with Cura's experimental SURFACE MODE function. To get flight models with the desired characteristics it is necessary to invent other methods and to get the slicers to create thin walled and super light parts in an unusual way. Most slicers expect "waterproof" bodies that are simply filled with filament. To develop RC flight models that are as light as possible and yet stable, it is necessary to work with as little filament as possible.
