Thanks for posting. I really enjoy your senses of humor and positivity. I'm an older pilot who is probably headed to the RC world if I want to keep flying. The real stuff is too expensive!
Awesome video showing the assembly of this plane! Great close up filming covering the finer details of Eclipson's design. Thanks for putting out video content covering the hobby.
Only just discovered your channel and 3D printed RC and just wanted to say wow! Brilliant job! Well paced, clear build details, super helpful! Eclipson should use your channel for all their build tutorials. Thanks HobbyView. Keep up the great work!
There should be print settings in the prusa slicer to prevent the print head from passing inside the print volume. That would prevent strings from forming inside as the print head will always take a path over a printed area. It will take a lot longer to print of course.
I’ve become a fan of the Eclipson designs since you turned me on to the Model Z. Thanks for making this construction video, and thank you for the insight into using LW-PLA. I am eagerly awaiting the flight review. I especially enjoy the way you do them.
Since your videos are superb, I could see you becoming a RUclips star specializing in 3D printing for RC. Tinkercad or Fusion thrown in. How to do your own custom designs - so many possibilities with your talent.
YEP!! I haven't built a plane since I was in my teens but I'm bursting with 3-D printer ideas for automotive applications. The flexible material he used for the tires is particularly interesting.
On my Ender 3 normal retraction of 6mm works fine with a extrusion multiplier of 0.5 giving weights just below 3d labprint values. temperature at 225.Love the material it is almost like having a plastic balsa easy to cut and sand, and the layers are almost invisible. I haven't painted over it yet but the finish would suggest it will adhere fine.
I must not be getting notifications from RUclips because I have not seen your videos in a long time. Great to see your video here. Interesting PLA. Less weight but stringy. Makes me wonder what causes the stringy character. If there is another setting or that is the way it is. Any rate. Still great to see your video. Hoping you and your family are staying safe.
Make sure that you clicked on the Bell icon as well as subscribe. The LW PLA expands when heated, so I presume that is why retraction doesn't work very well. I did a lot of experimenting and anything over about 1mm ultimately would cause issues. And the new Prusa printer has a really good extruder drive mechanism.
Thanks for the video on LW-PLA 3D Printing, can you share information on your slicer settings? I noticed that the Cura settings that Eclipson provides are not very good for LW-PLA. Also I'm not impressed with the support from eclipson with regards to print quality issues.
Any chance you could share your PrusaSlicer settings? I've printed several planes in PLA, but will likely be having a go at LW-PLA soon. Keep up the awesome work!
Thank you for your great video. I will build this model using regular PLA, Hope it works. Would be my first 3d printed plane. I really enjoyed the video.
im trying to build a car that can turn into a drone, but the car is pretty big and i cant 3d print it with pla because it would be too heavy, helppp. i need something strong and light filament.
Awesome Vid. I am in the process of printing one myself, but using the standard PLA all around. I am debating about reprinting the wing in LW-PLA to save on weight in the future, since the wing is removable, but that material is twice the amount in price. How did you address the pitting on the cowl towards the nose? I'm debating about adding top layers, but still considering how many. Cheers.
have you considered Fiberglass over PLA. Im doing that on my PRANDTL and its makes the model fly better since it's stiffer and of course if you crash ....you can fly it again.
Excellent videos, if you could help me in this field to know which is the printer that gives good results, which one would you recommend, the most suitable plastic filament and other details in such a way to do it yourself, thank you very much.
Technically, yes. But it may make some of the dimensions off standard. You would need to experiment, plus you would need a much bigger printer or slice it into smaller pieces.
Interesting that those who do nothing other than criticize are so sure of themselves, so cocky and snarky, all based on nothing. No accomplishments, just cynical horseshit with nothing to back it up. Let me dumb that down for you, Cox, put up or shut up.
Sorry about that. RUclips automatically does that. I have to actually manually disable the midroll adds. And RUclips doesn't allow me to do it when I upload the video. So I have to remember to go back at some unspecified time to manually disable them. It is not a creator friendly thing to do. Please contact RUclips with your complaints as those adds annoy me just as it does you.
That's only possible with some geometries. Vase mode means you can't have any internal geometry at all, and only one outer layer. Not ideal for this application.

Watching your videos is pure joy ✌️
Big fan myself of LW PLA, great stuff !
HOLY MOLYY YOU ARE A GENIUS JUST PERFECT AND THE MODEL WITH G CODE IS ONLY 35€. THIS IS AN EXTREMLY DETAILED MODEL AND ONLY 35€
Thanks for posting. I really enjoy your senses of humor and positivity. I'm an older pilot who is probably headed to the RC world if I want to keep flying. The real stuff is too expensive!
It’s a fun place too, customise and even build your own!

This channel doesn't get enough views, given the quality and information that go into the videos.
I'm happily subscribing.
Same!
Loved the build process, looking forward to the maiden flight!

Avoid crossing perimeters
I'm looking forward to seeing you flying it soon 🙂😊
Great video, will check out more of your channel.
Can’t wait to see it in the air
The debate in the background noise makes part of it so funny

Great recovery on the aileron hinge!!!
i really enjoyed your walk through of this build. Very informative and well produced. Thanks for sharing!
You need more subscribers. Your content is amazing.
Spread the word!

I need to get a 3D printer. Very cool
YEP!!

Ohhhh I like the color shelf!!! I need one too !!!
Aluminum "L" channels from Home depot.
Panthera :D I so like this plane. The original is from Pipistrel airplanes.
LPLA is the BOMB.
always great to see your work Fitz!

Thank you, I really appreciate how you present this information. How did I not find this channel before today?
Nice print, thanks for the video.
looking good, im doing the same thing right now building planes 😂 cant wait to fly them this summer.

Sure. I'll see if there is somewhere I can put them.
@@HobbyView Did you ever find a place to put the settings? Would be interested in seeing them. Thanks!
Thank you for your great video. I will build this model using regular PLA, Hope it works. Would be my first 3d printed plane. I really enjoyed the video.
that is so cool!
Great video! I have problem with my prusaslicer settings, do you wanna share your slicer settings?
wow! nice build! really surprised that you could create prints that are thin and light enough for such a big rc plane!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Good video. You have my like and I will be your follower. Your links are very helpful I hope to make one some day.
Panthro is your Thunder Cat, but close enough.
Precioso trabajo 👏👏🥇
awesome!
Nice!
Looks really good. Have you used the wood PLA?
-Justin
Not personally, but I know people who have. Not suitable for RC models, also needs much bigger extruder nozzle.
Would you please talk a little about your 3D printers and I'm wondering if at times you use a 3D scanner in conjunction with your printers?
Hmm... I don't have a 3D scanner, but maybe I can do a live show on my printers some time.
cheguei já dando like e me escrevendo no canal!
I Subscribed :)
Hey I would love to see more of the 102 club flying
In the fullness of time.
im trying to build a car that can turn into a drone, but the car is pretty big and i cant 3d print it with pla because it would be too heavy, helppp. i need something strong and light filament.

You could try adding an additional wall thickness.

Nice job but it needs some color and decals.
Is that the debate I hear in the background.
Maybe...
Great video thank you so much! Can you please tell us where to get the carbon fiber rods and piano wire?
A combination of Amazon and Ebay. Might also try your local hobby store.
Subscribed - looking for the maiden? Thanks
Also, can the model be scaled up so is a bigger model?
Technically, yes. But it may make some of the dimensions off standard. You would need to experiment, plus you would need a much bigger printer or slice it into smaller pieces.
Are you slicing these wings in prusaslicer?
Yes.
Hello which glue you use for the LW PLA thank you
Medium CA glue.
Is posible to use regular PLA for this?
yes but petg is better
What can I use to print props for my drone?
I wouldn't recommend 3D printing props.
first!
You have or patience than do
Interesting what some consider “light”

Здравствуйте, как скачать фаил Bakushin09011988@gmail.com буду рад если поделитесь.
Omg how many chuffing adds you added . Got bored of suffering all the adds .
Sorry about that. RUclips automatically does that. I have to actually manually disable the midroll adds. And RUclips doesn't allow me to do it when I upload the video. So I have to remember to go back at some unspecified time to manually disable them. It is not a creator friendly thing to do.
Please contact RUclips with your complaints as those adds annoy me just as it does you.
Hi have you thought about printing without any retraction, so each layer is printed in a smooth continuous line?
That sounds a bit like "vase" printing mode.
Note that many new designs are now optimized for LW-PLA printing.
That's only possible with some geometries. Vase mode means you can't have any internal geometry at all, and only one outer layer. Not ideal for this application.
Precioso trabajo 👏👏🥇
