My first 3D printed airplane - Eclipson model A. Mistakes were made!

Описание: Finally got everything aligned to try and maiden my first 3D printed airplane, the Model A by Eclipson.

This has been a lengthy project, took me over a year, not that it was difficult, I was just lazy :)
Printing planes was the main reason I got a 3D printer in the first place, I use a Creality Ender 3 V2, I used spare and cheap electronics to keep the cost down and I found out a lot by working on this plane as well as others I will share soon.

As you can see in the video, 3D printed planes can be fragile, but I will be trying to print this again in LW-PLA from eSun, it doesn't feel as brittle and the main benefit it's lighter!

I already started printing this again with LW-PLA as you can see at the and of the video and I'll keep you updated

If you want to try printing your own plane this is a very good, free option you can download here

They have plenty of other models you can buy as well as other websites and designers you can find online.

If you need any help or info don't be afraid to reach out, I'll be happy to share my experience with 3D printing.
