I like how the FPV antenna kinda look like exhaust piping from a radial engine. Would be cool to color them metallic silver if it won’t interfere with their signal.

@jameshamaker9321 Год назад

I agree, with that. it would look cool, especially since they work with a lot of prop planes, which originally were, exactly a radial engine. so, it would look really cool. I studied planes, growing up, so I'm sharing some of my knowledge with you.

I'll never give up on balsa, but man, being able to print out a micro fuselage would be super useful.

@twillison8824 2 года назад

I'm amazed with all of the foam/electric rtf kits available, how many classic balsa kits and plans are still available. I'm considering buying a lockheed constellation short kit, but I haven't messed with balsa in so long. EPO has spoiled me.

@slammerf16 Год назад

Balsa is beautiful, no doubt. But there's nothing that says you have to do one or the other! :)

@eulachonfish 3 года назад

Yeah, double it up! This plane looks and flies great. I'm still hoping to see an FT 3d/foamboard hybrid plane some day. Printed formers, foamboard skin, printed accent pieces like cockpit, firewall, gear etc... way less print time than doing the whole plane and you should be able to create some great shapes. Seems like it would really be a FT sort of thing and whoever draws up the 2d plans for laser cutting should be easily able to make the jump to 3d for this sort of project!

@RevUnstableBoy 3 года назад

Have mine printed in polyalchemy's nightshade elixir. Need to up it to 4 cell, but it is quick with a 3 cell. Great flying plane

@caleblower1982 3 года назад

Polyalchemy is such beautiful filament, I have used that color and love it. I noticed they have a good bit less layer adhesion so I would be careful with that. However, I used that filament a few years ago, so they might have changed up the blend some and fixed that issue.

I've now printed 5 Eclipson planes, 2 model A,'s 3 Model C's. One really cool thing, when you order it, you get the files right away. I started printing my model C's 10 minutes after ordering. I print in standard PLA though, the price and shipping to Canada of that Colorfabb filament is just way to high. I'm looking forward to a summer's worth of planes, all 3D printed.

@rsmith3834 2 года назад

Any issues with PLA in the summer? I'm in the southern U.S., so I'm wondering if the airflow from flying would keep the material temp low enough to keep it from getting soft. Of course I wouldn't just leave it sitting out in the sun.

I've been seeing these rc plane videos a lot lately and idk if I wanna get sucked in to another expensive hobby, but it looks super fun

@eulachonfish 3 года назад

Flite test is all about cheap fun in RC, look back into their long history as they have literal $5 builds out of dollar store foam and these 3d printed planes are not expensive either (looks like less than a $30 roll of filament to me). You have to buy a transmitter and power package (receiver, battery, motor) but these have come way down in cost. You can get into the hobby for a couple hundred bucks (mostly the transmitter) and fly for years with very little added money spent. Most parts can be salvaged in a crash. I say go for it

@stilldomi 3 года назад

@@eulachonfish dang, I just might. Thanks kind stranger

@taylorpeterson7015 3 года назад

instead of using superglue or cement for the 3d printed planes, use pla 3d gloop. it’s an adhesive that was designed specifically for pla and it’s fantastic. it’s actually amazing
