How To: LW PLA Printer Calibration Guide - Ultimate Settings for Light Weight PLA Printed Aircraft

Описание: The ultimate guide to calibrating your printer for perfect print quality with lightweight LW PLA. A guide for the perfect printer settings for your 3D printed aircraft!

This how-to guide will work with Eclipson, Flightory, and any other 3D printed aircraft designs!

In this video we will first make a temperature test to select the proper filament temperature, then we will do some flow rate testing and adjust the printer further, after that, we will do a pressure advance test, and then finally a retraction test. After all of the testing is complete and the printer settings are updated we will run a final printer torture test to see the outcome of our setting changes!

This ultimate guide covers all aspects of tuning your 3D printer for 3D-printed aircraft using LW-PLA. It will help anyone turn out amazing prints and find the best print settings for their environment.

Welcome to Captain 3D printed FPV where we talk about everything related to printing, building, and flying 3d printed aircraft and quadcopters. Please give me a thumbs up and subscribe to the channel.
