This week we put an amazing 3-D printed warbird to the test. The new colorfabb P-51 mustang is printed exclusively from high temperature light weight PLA , but it also is features a retractable landing gear design. This model is easy to transport and is fantastic in the air. While we were getting the mustang ready to put in the air, we also put a new design to the test with a 3D printed FT tenet hybrid. This extra time we had is thanks to the printing services of NGEN3D. Now you do not need to have your own 3-D print set up to be able to purchase and assemble your own 3-D model! NGEN3D will print and deliver the kit to you. None of this would be possible without the amazing designs from Eclipson, lightweight PLA from Colorfabb, and print services from NGEN3D. If you’re looking to get into 3-D printed flight now is the time with many great discounts available from these companies.

Why a P-38? Curious

@jonmurphy2564 Год назад

It's such an iconic shape, different from the other warbirds of its era

@andyroo3022 Год назад

P38 YES. Twin booms, such a nice looking aircraft.

@cuban9splat Год назад

@@chuck.reichert83 Because it was the fastest and most effective fighter in WW-II (IMHO). It was the plane that shot down Yamamoto and basically ended the war in the Pacific.

@chuck.reichert83 Год назад

@@cuban9splat fastest fighter likely goes to the Me-262,and most effective will likely go to the Bf-109. It took a pilot to fly and aim the plane that shot down Yamamoto's transport. I don't think the Pacific Theater ended until 2 cities experienced very bright, horrific, and lasting events.

@sgcdialler Год назад

Eclipson should make the P38 Lightning. I imagine it would be a significant upgrade from 3DLabPrint's version, which is a complicated build even if it did have good instructions (which it does not). I can think of several things that could be improved from that model...

@josephkeegan319 Год назад

I would also be very happy to see a more user friendly P-38!

@ksweens01 Месяц назад

The 3DLabPrint P38 is probably my favorite model, but man is the build awful. I just recently started learning blender so that I can add in filament alignment pegs to the tail boom sections - they're almost impossible to get perfectly aligned due to the absence of positive keying. I would love an Eclipson designed one. They really seem to have hit a good balance of cost, performance, and ease of construction with their warbird collection.

@tankhunter117 Год назад

F6F Hellcat, SBD Dauntless, ME-109, FW-190, P-38 Lightning, P-47 Thunderbolt, F4U Corsair, Spitfire, and Hurricane are all planes I’d like to see them make.

@UncoiledPack83 Год назад

@thegreenguy5194 Год назад

Best twin engine warbird EVER was the DH-98 Mosquito.

@NHfiddle Год назад

I would love to see a "monster" scale war bird. Preferably a P51B Mustang with the "Shangri La" decal scheme. The pilot of that particular plane was a very distant relative to me. His name is Don Gentile. I would buy that in a heart beat. Thanks so much for all you guys do, you're awesome.

@dragoncloude Год назад

OH!!!! These things look amazing a Warbird collection is amazing here are my favorites. Sorry if the list is long but there were so many iconic planes and so many that are works of art. You got the P-51 great start. you need the Supermarine Spitfire a must. Oh and the Mitsubishi A6M Zero. Also either or , or both Messerschmitt Bf 109 and Focke-Wulf Fw 190 both Iconic and gorgeous. Can for get the Pacific aces with the Vought F4U Corsair, Curtiss P-40 Warhawk, Grumman F6F Hellcat and Lockheed P-38 Lightning. I am sure there are plenty of choices for you here.

@N827TM Год назад

An F4U Corsair with Flaps and Retracts, A P-40N with Flaps and Retracts, an AT-6 with Flaps and Retracts. Flaps and retracts are a MUST!!!

@swissfreek Год назад

I think it's really cool how 3D printing opens up possibilities for cool shapes and planes that would be really difficult or impossible to make otherwise (unless you were a big company doing molded foam). My issue with 3D printed planes, though, is that everything has to go exactly right every time. The print has to go right (no weak spots), the build has to go right (same thing), and the flying has to go right (no crashes). One hard landing and you're putting all that plastic in the recycle bin, especially with the lightweight PLA stuff that is mostly air and baking soda. For a P-51 it makes sense since someone who attempts that should/would be an experienced flyer, but for something like the Tenet? I mean, that's a plane that is meant to crash and bash by a beginner. By making it 3D printed, we're back to the balsa days that us older guys remember. You spent 9 months building a balsa trainer in your attic, and then you either never flew it because you were too scared to destroy it (that was me), or you flew it once, stalled it, and turned it into kindling. A lot of people never even started in this hobby because of an experience like that.

@gmorphan Год назад

Amen...brother. Not worth the effort or aggravation in my book.

@andrewchapman2024 Год назад

I like the idea of a model P-38 lightning. Although the Brewster F2A Buffalo would be pretty cool as well.

@robertrivera9162 Год назад

War Birds: BF 109 Razer back canopy Thunderbolt Stuka Dive bomber P-40 Japanese Zero These are just to name a few, lol. Awesome plane, I love the color look, and its flying characteristics. In addition, it looks simple to put together and I love the structure that was designed inside of the wings. My university is having a 3D-printed glider aircraft competition so seeing this plane gives me a lot of inspiration and desire to keep up with my teams' build if our 3D-printed aircraft. Cheers guys and happy flying!

@TheFlyingMasterChef Год назад

My list is massive. LOL However, my favorite planes, and some I have actually gotten the chance to fly IRL are the Vought F4U Corsair, P-38H Lightning, Grumman F6F-5 Hellcat & F4F Wildcat, and ANY of the WWII bombers.

@davidowens989 Год назад

I wanna see either a P-38 or a Stutka.

@MattBarnesbuilds Год назад

Something different than the usual Corsairs, Spits, FW's or Lightnings. How about a B-26 Marauder! It's such an underrated warbird.

@artemnikitin2806 Год назад

hey guys, I know it is a bit offtopic, but imho the best seller would be a dedicated fpv plane in 1000-1100mm range with options for sd/hd fpv gear. one twin tractor and one pusher, and somethng in a sub 600mm category. there also are a few amature attempts in the sub 250g but would be interesting to see an option from eclipson.

@michiganengineer8621 Год назад

The pusher prop Tenant should be easily modifiable to look (and maybe fly) like the Icon amphibian. Eclipson did the P-51, maybe a BF-109 or an FW-190 next.

@blakeunderwood3736 Год назад

I would suggest a more unconventional plane: either the Sopwith Camel or the Boeing 377 Stratocruiser! The Camel is less outlandish but seeing an RC Stratocruiser would be a bizarre experience!

@blakeunderwood3736 Год назад

Now that I think about it the Stratocruiser isn’t a warbird.

@wilgarcia1 Год назад

The P51 is my favorite!!! I have a 65in one fiberglass one. I would love to see Eclipsion make a North American SNJ. It was a trainer not a fighter which means it would be even easier to fly. I worked on one in High School and would totally build it with the Aviation HS colors =)

@carolinaboy008 Год назад

@toddabbott781 Год назад

Can you please do a few project videos: 1. I want to see a POV camera on a gimbal using head tracking in goggles for FULL immersion. 2. Long rang POV capabilities... possibly even use a quad with a signal booster on it that you can set to hover out a ways. I want miles... 5-10 or more if possible. 3. Do a review on cameras, goggles, transmitters at a few price points and technical levels. It has been years since you have done this. 4. Maybe go over some autopilot features and GPS navigation. 5. Show off a few kits that would work well with a system like this (like skill level or say bomb payload, or maybe even a powered glider). Talk a bit about what engine packs, servos, receivers... needed for the kits and what battery or batteries you would need to long distance flights. 6. Maybe even do something like this for quads too.

@Adam-zg5kr Год назад

Should do a range of WWII warbirds from each country. Mustang, Meshersmitt and for us brits, the Hawker Hurricane. People will say the Spitfire but we wouldnt have won the war without the mighty Hawker!! Best plane in my opinion.

@modhail6908 Год назад

A "bit" late to the video, but there are lots of builds for the classic warbirds out there, I'd love to see Eclipson do some of the late war oddballs and experimental planes: A flying flapjack, J7W Shinden, XP-55 Ascender, Swoose Goose, that kind of stuff.

But heck, some rarer ones could rock too, like a Beaufort or Beaufighter, Airacobra, Brewster Buffalo.
