Printing build plans/templates – scaling and alignment issues

[Oscar_Trower]

Hi everyone,

I’ve been trying to print some RC plane plans and templates, but I’m running into issues with scaling and alignment. Sometimes the parts don’t line up correctly after printing, even though they look fine on screen.

I’ve tried printing directly from the browser and also exporting to PDF first, but results are still a bit inconsistent.

One thing that helped me a bit was doing a quick test print first to check scaling and margins before printing the full plans. I used a simple print test page from just to make sure everything is aligned correctly before printing the actual templates.

Just wanted to ask:

• What print settings do you usually use for plans (scale, margins, etc.)?
• Any tips to make sure parts come out accurate and aligned?

Would appreciate any advice.
