    Looks good in the air. Well done on maiden flight

    Good job, what seats are you using? I’m currently printing the same model

      The seats were also 3D printed with a lether brown and softish plastic...I really don't know which...the owner sadly past since then😔

    information. at :08, the prop appears to not be, a correctly spec'd E prop. it should be understood that Any wing that is not made via traditional construction methods Has a Less-stable span-wise dom. distribution of mass. googletranslate

      Your opinion, but thank you. I will leave it up to the owner of the aircraft. By the way it is a APC E prop.

      @@daviddavids2884 you are to funny man. If you don't have anything nice to say, please go on with your day. You are probably a very loney person who likes to call people names, undermining people makes you feel like a macho man.
      You could've asked what power setup we use before you judge on something you clearly know nothing about. I will not entertain you further.
      Thank you Kind sir and enjoy your day

    All videos of 3D printed planes keep reinforcing my comments about how full 3d printed models are wonky on takeoffs and landings because you cannot simply get the lightweight characteristics and structural strength you get with proven lighter materials and more traditional ways of constructing RC airplane models. In particular with the wings, heavy mass distribution in the wing is apparent on most 3D printed rc airplane videos and it shows in the less stable behavior of the model, especially during low power takeoff and landings. Full 3D printed RC aircraft also require more brute power, something one can easily achieve with less power if the model was design and built with proper mass distribution concentration and more suitable materials. The savage bobber is supposed to be an ultralight and it should be built like one. This video as many similar 3D printed one show the total opposite. None of my RC Ultralight designs have these issues , besides being super durable.

      I totally agree with you. 3D printed ola es looks nice with all detail you can add erc but thats where it stays. Nit one 3d printed plane proved worth while yet. Light wood and foam is the go to. Thanks for your comments and support.😉👍🏻

      ​@@RCPilotH Thank you so much for your honest feedback in support of my comment. Based on my own experience designing rc aircraft of all sorts, for the past 40 years, I have made several comments with respect to same subject in various social media platforms that talk about full 3D Printed airplanes and not one soul has commented on them good or bad. Like the saying goes , no news or comments is good news, but it is nice when others see the same light and reinforce those logical details that should or not be in a particular approach to designing, building rc aircraft, that anyone with a sense of common sense should be able to grasp and understand.
      There is another gent that also agreed with my comments but that is about it. It does not surprise me in this world driven by popularity by numbers and who you know, and it is all about marketing and who has the potential to yield the most views so that advertisers get the most for their ad money, in sales, that we have lost a great deal of honesty and focus on things that matter and that should be conveyed to the public with a sense of balance and sincerity.
      My take on most people that are pushing full 3D printed airplanes is that they are either part of the companies also pushing these new expensive Light PLA filaments or work as partners with them in exchange for products or favors. That is basically how the world at the bigger scheme of things works. I DON"T WORK THIS WAY, and while one can work on tandem with other , or companies, in a joint effort towards a product, I think and believe the product should be designed with a balance of commons sense and honesty, so that the product reflects this to the end user.
      To illustrate this, take any 3D printed plane in a good crash you will total some or most of the plane, what this does to the user is it forces he/she to reprint the model, or give up in the process. I think the psychology here is typically the user will want to reprint and is forced to resort to using the same expensive filament and probably waste a great deal of material and time in the process of fine tuning and printing it, not to mention this is only streamline for those that are promoting these full 3D printed models, by trying to replace traditional proven methods, in particular materials, with expensive time consuming and less durable 3D Print filaments. As we all know, the actor/promoter's job is to make it look as simple and easy as possible. While the same can be said about any company that sells products, I don't sell anything that is not designed without an honest effort in providing a model with performance, durability and realism, using methodically and logically selected materials and components. This has a huge bearing on my comments.

      Love it man. And I am totally with you.
      Keep doing what you do. You truly sounds like a very intelligent individual.
      Best regards...Lets Fly

    at 1:28, curvature of the prop is Evidence of an Incorrectly spec'd prop.!!! that is, a prop that is Too flexible, for the application.! googletranslate

      Might be the Camera making the prop appear to be flexible, I can promise you....APC props do not bend
