Although, our G-code files are sliced with ideaMaker, we also provide the 3MF files so that if you would like to play with the model, all slicer settings are already recorded in the files. PrusaSlicer has been updated to be able to slice our single perimeter models and well known for easy to use. At the same time, we welcome PrusaSlicer to add. We are not really comfortable to use in upcoming future. Unfortunately, we have to let S3D go since it does not have gyroid infill pattern and also has not sent any new update for couple of years. Feel free to increase or decrease the values including playing with other settings if you feel better than ours (we are happy listening / getting your input/feedback, so keep us posted about your build in our facebook group). Final values will be used in OWLplane slicer profiles. We run some research and experiment with some number of setting values for infill percentage. The good news is that the AUW is still acceptable for the jet and allow it to use like lego style blocks to assemble. With having gyroid infill, we have tried to use top and bottom layers. To get optimal result, we also still use ribs so that we will achieve parts using optimal gyroid infill percentage. You can pick infill percentage to you preferences where the higher you set it will be stronger. It flies fast and also slow and no worries anymore during take off and landing.Īs you can see from the pictures below, they illustrate a 3D printed part when using gyroid infill and ribs. Now, we give you all solutions to have fun with our models. To protect from scratches during landing, you use fiber tape (you can find it in details below in this page). We will use it also for our jet upcoming models. We really love our Catapult Launcher since easy to use and safe. This model still can be hand launched, but we would suggest launching it with our OWL Catapult Launcher (STL files are free to download). This 70mm EDF OWL F-16 Falcon model has been tested with 4s 3300mAh and 6s 2200mAh (about 400grams of weight). Now, based on our experience, we would like to go more with “Digital Balsa and Foam” techniques used for our upcoming models. Surprisingly, “Digital Balsa and Foam” is not only strong but also light and there is no issue so far with any impacts happening during landing. We wondered if that size can be still reliable for hard landing, especially the F-16 Falcon model where its intake lip is located at the bottom and front side of the fuselage. 80mm or more EDF sizes would be too big for no landing gears, so we decided to scale up the model to fit 70mm EDF instead. The 64mm EDF is designed for hand launching or utilizing catapult launchers. We have released 64mm EDF F-16 Falcon successfully as part of “Digital Balsa and Foam” series.
