Two pounds, 14 ounces, ready to fly. I've got the turnigy 3530, 1100 kV motor, an EFlite 60A ESC, and a lemon 6 channel with a satellite. Hopefully the cheapo 9 gram servos hold up. The arms on the ailerons are short enough they shouldn't snag on the ground when landing. I am going to start out with an 11x7 and 3S. Unfortunately, what's not frozen is a muddy mess, so the maiden may have to wait.... It's not belly lander weather!
There was definitely a learning curve to the thin wall printing. I used eSun PLA. The next one, I will use Hatchbox.
I also have relatively thin glass on my bed, and for these planes, at least 4mm glass is needed. My glass is just over 2 mm, and the wings pull so hard as they cool the glass warps a little! The printer is a Makerfarm Pegasus 10 with metal motor mounts and acme thread z screws.
