Hi Everyone,
I need some help. I am a rookie when it comes to 3D printing. I want to 3D print the Eclipson Go 1 Wolf (it's a free plane from Eclipson). I think it is a cool looking plane. But I have never 3D printed anything that had the G codes already for you in a folder. I was able to unzip the folder that I got from Eclipson. The printer that I am using is an Ender 3V2. I also use the Creality slicer for STL files that I get from Thingiverse. When I slice a STL file, lets say I am working on a Benchy. The G code file will look like this on my micro sd card. CEV2_3D Benchy Type: GCODE. Here is were it gets interesting. When I down load a file from the unzipped folder, lets use the Pilot as an example. It will show up on the micro sd card as, Pilot Type: 3D Object. There is no G code showing up for the Pilot. The 3D printer does not even show the file of the Pilot on it's screen for objects to print. I understood that the files for the Go 1 Wolf were already sliced and ready for 3D printing. What am I missing ? Can someone point me in the right direction.
I am open to all advice,
Al
