    I printed a V2 out of glow in the dark PLA, then put UV LEDs inside controlled off a brushed ESC. have yet to fly it at night, but the whole plane can glow.

You guys should def do a few more 3d printed wing episodes. They even have a mini Drak type on Thingyverse. Should do a video on one of those start to finish. Using one of your power packs of course!

    One thing I've noticed with my 3d printed planes, especially ones with such a thin profile like these planes or the 3dLabPrint Spitfire Mk XVI is that they cut through the air so well you have to let off the throttle 2 to 3 times earlier than you would expect to get them to slow down enough for landing.

    @TekedixXx 3 года назад +1

    I wonder if you could get the same impact resistance out of PETG. Maybe the tough PLA is lighter? PETG is a copolyester and is very impact resistant. Some people say it's difficult to print, but I've never had any issues. Might be a good alternative if someone can't find a specific PLA blend, but still wants to print high impact parts. Layer orientation is also going to play a major role in part strength.

    • @scratchinjack608
      @scratchinjack608 2 года назад

      I would think PETG would be heavier and less "crisp." What amazes me is this Light Weight PLA. In the end, I would thing, it is the engineering while on CAD these RC models for 3D printing is the key for light weight and sturdiness.

    I got the carbon cub s2 for Christmas last year and I have been flying it since on beginner mode. I have had some problem with it lately, when I am flying the plane always wants to go to the right. I tried trimming it on beginner mode but then found out you should not trim on beginner mode. So I then tried trimming it in experienced mode on the ground. When I went to fly it in beginner mode it wasn’t flying as smooth as it usually would. When I look at the plane all the control surfaces looked lined up correctly. I don’t know why it is not flying correctly. I do not have any experienced RC pilots that I know to help my learn to fly on experienced mode and to help me trim it back to normal. I was wondering if you had any advice 🤔

  • @Real28
    @Real28 3 года назад +1

    I know you might need some supports but I'd much rather the fuselage be printed in section flat instead of on end and same for wing parts.
    Why?
    The wings especially because the force applied to them will separate the layers much easier in the orientation you printed them. With the layers oriented like that, even with the rods inside (that's smart), you could still get the layers to delaminate. If you print the wings say, on their leading edge and just sand/finish that, now the layers will be long ways and the parts will be much stronger under load.
    But the orientation you chose is the quicker way since there's no supports. So I understand that. I'd do that in the iteration phase. But for final I'd swap orientation to gain more natural strength
    When it comes to 3d printing, you really need to pay attention to layer orientation when loads are going to be applied.

  • @ripmax333
    @ripmax333 2 года назад

    I don't think it would be that easy to replace that damaged part, you might try to pop that part out from the other but since you used super glue to attach those parts together there might be a good chance that you damage the other part in the process as superglue sticks very well to PLA especially to LW-PLA since its more porous.

    Please print safe... put the printer in an enclosure, use a fume extractor / air filtration. 3D Printers put out a fair amount of VOCs and Nanoparticles. Check the material safety data sheets. Also, the CDC and OSHA give similar warnings about users near 3D printers in use. Be safe guys!
