Today we build our highest energy 3-D printed aircraft yet. The eclipson model 3-D features extreme control surfaces that will throw this plane through every axis imaginable. Utilizing different filaments from lightweight PLA to tough PLA, every piece of this airframe is 3-D printed, including the wheels! Once printed, the Eclipson Model 3D can be assembled and take to the skies in as little as one day. This aircraft is light, but is it tough? Today we put that to the test by flying basic aerobatics and also extreme high energy maneuvers that are sure to stress out every piece of this gorgeous design. The evolution of Eclipson 3-D printed airplane is truly alive and well and this is a prime example of it. Come along on this journey and see if this model is the one for you.

Just opened up my complete simple Scout kit. The quality of the parts is absolutely amazing. The way it is packaged is absolutely fantastic. The quality of the motor and the machine parts are very very good. If you are considering a kit do not hesitate. You will absolutely be pleased. This is the first of many to come. And the fact that I can watch it complete build video on RU-vid. It doesn't get any better. Oh and that's not to mention the Friday videos that I look forward to every week. I'm 64 years old and they bring out the kid in me. Thanks John from Canada

@reptilez Год назад

Just more great family stuff. You folks stay true and never disappoint.

@Herbybandit Год назад

You could almost print it in the finished colour to save painting but it looks like an awesome machine for anyone wanting to step into 3D flight, I suppose it could do pattern easily too.

@DetroitMicroSound Год назад

That plane looks incredible! I'd like to see a Rolls Royce Spirit of Innovation version, with a really powerful motor. Built for SPEED!

@TPS-models Год назад

That's a good test to see how durable pla planes are

@maski05 Год назад

When your son takes what you've taught him to another level.... priceless !!!

@tplyt12 Год назад

I love how you make these 3D-printed planes. Keep up the good work!😊

@rozmansi1 Месяц назад

Excellent video, thanks! I'm new into RC planes and just built my own Eclipson 3D. About the unbalanced spinner: I've started to 3D print my spinners, rims, wheels, basically any part that rotates setting "Z Seam Alignment" to "Random". This distributes the layer beginnings/endings evenly across the perimeter resulting in a more balanced part. On average.

@WernerBeroux 7 дней назад

I also always print my spinner in LW-PLA. Don't know why Eclipson suggests PLA, it make no sense to me as there is no structural load.

@LCAviator26 Год назад

Who else wants to see Mike review other 3D birds, like flex innovations planes?!

@wilgarcia1 Год назад

It would be great of you guys or Eclipson sold a kit with all the non printable parts like carbon tubes wires collars. Been trying to get my planes completed but its been a bit of a challenge.

@jasonhurdlow6607 Год назад

Yeah, the 3D printing is easy. Finding the carbon at reasonable prices is the hard part.

@BMSWEB Год назад

Absolutely loved this episode so much and on so many levels. So good!

@janivo5218 Год назад

I would love to learn how to design my own 3d printed airplanes, that might be a good tutorial idea as well

@airgunner8770 Год назад

You guys do great stuff. How about building a scale scooper plane, taking water from a small pond or lake, and putting out a small fire.

@walk4718 Год назад

Great to see Bro Mike taking center stage👍👍

@creativealtone Год назад

Looking forward to building my tutor but I hope that when I can get a 3D printer with larger than a 100mm bed I plan to try a 3D printed plane.

@motorcyclemayham Год назад

Yall need a crash and repair series. I bought the seabird and had a lot of fun trying to keep it in the air after repeatedly crashing it. At one point the wings were flapping like a bird lol and it was more duct tape than a plane. "we successfully flew a well-built plane" isn't as entertaining as, "we flew this well-built plane into a pole, will it fly again?"

@brendon3578 Год назад

Disappointed you didn't actually crash it and show how durable it is and how repairs are easy to do with 3D printed planes.

@pb6839 Год назад

I made one of their planes (black wing?) and they are not durable at all since the walls are printed extremely thin (around 1.5mm). I was printing for over 30 hours because printing LW PLA isn't as easy as they make it sound the prints often would fail several hours in (the pla has air bubbles inside intentionally, making it lighter). Mine then got partially crushed moving it around and since then i haven't had the motivation to go back and print for another 2 days to repair it. That being said I think the 3d modelling and research they do is really professional and perhaps it's worth building one for the novelty factor. Even though mine has not flown I can tell that one crash and it's over. I thought it could be improved with some fiberglass but then it would throw out all the aerodynamic and physics etc that they design the planes around. Still cool though

@RCwithAdam1 Год назад

I was also disappointed. Why make "crashing" the title of the video? Kinda felt like clickbait, or sensationalism at least.

@xprettylightsx Год назад

WAHHHH!!!!!

@Viralism Год назад

One thing I would love to see is a foam plane with working landing gear that retracts, Like huge commercial airliner with wheels that retract into the hull

@Viralism Год назад

with closing flaps to protect the wheels during flight

@SgtJamesRay Год назад

Dam I love you guys. I do plane chasing and I'd love to chase what you guys fly!

@jimmcdougall9973 Год назад

Wow! Wish I had a 3D printer. Very nice.

@richb313 Год назад

Fantastic model and flying.

@dakota4755 Год назад

I love y'all's videos keep doin what y'all doin. I love the dogfight videos or the videos like the battleship vs a plane.

@gordonendicott5114 2 месяца назад

Add 40 mm to wing lengths and added 20 to width flys great

@Raycefan Год назад

So, I bought a 3D printer mainly to print planes and all things RC. (I keep hoping to see FT 3D printed planes/models/STL Files. But I digress.). I will tell you, that Wclipson is BY FAR the best files and easiest to print and most user friendly to take from download to physical model.

@TimsBitsnPieces Год назад

Wow thats awesome.. I have a 3d printer and now I'm thinking of getting into RC planes.. I have built and used RC model boats for over 20 years..

@MixerOrigami Год назад

The plane works great, I would like to ask where can I buy 3d printed models?

@David-yo5ws Год назад

I'm just 'thinking outside the square' to help out. Maybe you can do a search and find a 3D printing company in your area. A lot of these 3D prints are often open source and free online. So if you can find the site and files you need for a particular model that you are interested in buying and building, you could print off the list and site and then see if you can get a quote from the 3D printer business. That way you get all the parts you need and then you can assemble it. Do you know a school teacher or school near by that might turn it into a class project? Otherwise the usual online stores would provide you some links to kit models. Best of luck.

@markymark3075 Год назад

Nice looking plane 👌

@_D3adB0y_ Год назад

Would be really awesome to see some 3d printed dlg gliders without motors. I had a mini foam one that would stay in the sky for hours by flying along the ocean coast and only needing a small battery for the servos.

@AviationAngler Год назад

3d lab print has one I believe and eclipson has a free model that is a glider with a small motor

@NonEuclideanTacoCannon 9 месяцев назад

Has anyone tried printing parts like a traditional balsa wood kit? 3D printed ribs and bulkheads and such? I kind of want to try it. I'm thinking like, 3D printed wing ribs, carbon fiber spars, 3d printed space frame fuselage, then wrapped. I know that sort of defeats the purpose of 3d printing a plane, but it seems like it would be a little more adaptable, and certainly a lot lighter.

@mottii Год назад

nice

@hi5635_ Год назад

Great vid

@davidbean5807 Год назад

I want to see you drop a 1000-sheet roll of Scott brand toilet paper from a plane with the end still attached to the plane. Effectively creating a 1000-sheet streamer mid-air. I'll be watching.

@spo2651 Год назад

Could you do a mg100 sf17 starforrtress? Maybe a droneish thing that drops bbs?

@mars7786 Год назад

Lawnmower will find that push rod for ya haha

@RCwithAdam1 Год назад

Did anybody else miss the part where they actually tried to crash the 3D printed plane? I could be mistaken, but since the video is titled "We Tried Crashing This 3D Printed Plane" I thought that would be the main part and actually include crashing. 🤔

@Krash_fpv Год назад

After you print the spinner mount KY yo a drill and spin it ad sand it to true it out

Can you print a plane with a resin 3d printer i dont know but at the moment i cant find uit because im out of resin

@Clickmaster5k Год назад

Are you ever going to build or talk about big balsa or gassers again? I get the chan is targeted at new pilots and children but those new pilots get more advanced eventually. I look through your videos from time to time and all I see is electric and foam stunt things based on current fads. That's fun and all but id love to see a little more or the test in flight test and some more where to go after basic foam board and electric from the senior guys that have done it all. The last heli video I can find is many years old. Maybe how to get started with fiberglass or carbon fiber? Maybe some experimental hybrid printed foam composite and laminated stuff all combined in to one plane? Maybe some flight controller stuff like a foam board endurance challenge where two planes are given the same battery and have to fly a largeish pattern to see what goes longer? IDK, but or me at least the we built a giant foam X and put enough motors on to make it work for a video gets old. Yes, I realize this is a 3d printed plane in this video, that's what attracted me to even click on it was that it wasn't foam and was a new FT video.
