3d print

I’m trying to model and 3D print a roughly 1-meter-long JAS 39 Gripen RC model for a school project. I’ve been researching online and working on the modeling process, but now that I’m trying to determine if it can actually fly, I’m struggling. According to the simulations I’m running in...

I was playing around with some tiltrotor concepts and it turns out that the Mellenium Flerkin is a darn good candidate to conver to a tiltrotor. It's huge electronics bay makes the flight controller easy, and the vertical fins do a nice job of protecting the rear prop from ground strikes...

Most of my 3D printed planes so far have either been very experimental (tailless planes, early modular designs), highly loaded (F-104, Gee Bee, MiG 15), or designed to be gentle flying and carry a lot of load (modular trainer/base plane). But now I want to build something that is...

Hello all! I just finished up "version 1" of my custom FT Commuter build, so I decided I'd share some of my journey with all of you. This project started just over a year ago when I bought my FT Commuter kit...or at least when I tried to buy the kit before I got an email saying it had been...

I haven't had too much time for building lately, so I've been doing a lot of designing instead. One the goals of my modular plane system was to be able to swap out the power systems on the jets for either a 64mm unit or a 70mm unit, but both the F-104 and modular jet trainer were too big and...

Hey everybody this thread will be all about my journey into 3D printing. It will go on to showcase the endless possibilities that we have today with 3D printers. This first post will be sort of an index to the many projects that I will be posting about in this thread and will be updated each...

If you're looking to upgrade your Flite Test Guardian Gremlin v2 to HDZero, here is a new camera mount that takes the HDZero Eco Bundle camera. Features a keyed system that ensures the camera is mounted level. Easiest way to insert camera is from the side and rotate it in. Add a little hot...

My 3D printed/foamboard hybrid RC 3D plane with 80cm wingspan. All stl files and foamboard plans are here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6559930. I will keep this site more up to date than this post - so use the thingiverse site rather than this post if you plan to build it. This is...

Another weekend, another build. This time we wanted an A-10, but not a prop-driven version. There are a few other EDF mounting solutions that I found, but I didn't like the scale and some were overly complex. I designed my own mount on Fusion 360, printed it on my Bambu P1S out of PETG, and...

This is the release of my modular F-104. It is designed to be 3D printed in PLA or ABS (optional for some parts). It is a 6-channel design and flies on a 4s 4000 mAh battery up to 80 mph. This release contains full STLs, G-code, and an instruction manual detailing assembly. The supplied G-code...

Just gonna try and see if I can take telnar1236's MiG-21 project and get it up and running, I've been looking forever for a starting point because my scaling has been horrible. I think I could get their plane to fly by using the cooling ducts that the real plane uses and turning them into air...

Good day everyone. An introduction to InPrint Airplanes. InPrint is a startup company focussed on developing quality, 3D files for printed aircraft. We also provide fully illustrated and detailed print, assembly, and setup documentation. Go to www.inprint-airplanes.com We originate from the...

About a year ago, I built my FT Spear. For this build I used quite a few 3D printed parts. Most are available on Thingiverse. I wanted it to have landing gear because the field I flew on at the time was paved and didn't have a good grassy area to land. I designed the main gear struts in...

Foam Wonder Battery Tray STL Designed By: Dan Sponholz 3D printed battery tray designed specifically for my balsa to foam conversion of the Foam Wonder. This battery tray is optional and gets glued directly to the foam battery tray in the model. The slots are provided for attaching optional...

Sharing my first 3D printed design after hundreds of hours figuring out Fusion360. This is geared to LW-PLA and an F-Pack motor. Printed predominately in vase mode with very few retractions to ensure clean printing. My goal was a simple toss and go wing, easy to hand launch and fun to fly...

FT Grumman G-44 Widgeon Water Rudder Design By: David Jester 3D Printable replacement water rudder for the Flite Test Grumman G-44 Widgeon. Print vertical with PLA or Tough PLA (PLA+), 100% infill, no supports, with brim.

First shot at making 3D models and not sure why the STL files are not exactly the same size (KB). They're the same just mirrored the exhaust. Not too bad but the thru-holes for the BBQ skewers are a little bit big. not a friction fit. Also new at 3D printing and have not yet figured out the...

Micro Adventure and Micro Beaver Motor Mount Design By: David Jester 3D Printable replacement motor mount for the Flite Test Micro Adventure and Flite Test Micro Beaver. Print with PLA or Tough PLA (PLA+).

FT Flerken Printed Parts 3D Modeled By: Dan Sponholz If you're building the FT Flerken from the purchased plans available from the FTCA, you can print these STL files to help you complete your build. Or save even more time and order the speed build kit here: FT Nano Flerken FT Flerken...

Dummy Radial XL for FT 2814 Designed By: Dan Sponholz This dummy radial engine is designed to work with the Flite Test 2814/1100kv motor. I designed it to add semi-scale detail to your foam board model airplanes. It prints as a single piece with no supports using basic PLA filament. The dummy...
