Forum members' new models: Let's see them.
Kevin Fairgrieve replied to Paul Marsh's topic in All Things Model Flying
My 3D skills only run to basic components, nothing too fancy. The files for this model cost a paltry £10.22 from Cults. https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/gadget/f4d-skyray-50mm-edf-jet My slicer of choice is Orca slicer or Bambu Studio, my printer is a Bambu P1S. This model was designed to use a single wall structure which would account for the "flimsy" feel. I generally tend to run 2 walls for most components only using single walls where weight saving would be an advantage. My EDF of choice was smaller than the model was designed for so a shroud was printed for it. Standard PLA weighed in at 14.2g the LW PLA only 6.5g. Even with the extra weight I will have a better than 1:1 thrust on this. -

This 3D printing lark is catching. Following the success of my last model I have just completed my next! F4D Skyray I have also chosen my next print! A twin!! You will have to wait to see which one. For those interested. Total print time: 39.30hrs Total filament 467.1g A reel of Overture AIR PLA contains 800g of filament which costs £19.99 You can do the maths. -
Strangely enough I am just in the middle of reading Harrier 809. Hard to believe that these events took place over 41 years ago. Fly high "Sharky"

About eight years ago I purchased my first 3D printer. I am going to print all my planes said I! So this weekend that will become a reality.☺️ Wish me luck.👍 -
