PRINTING THE PARTS – PRINTING PROFILES
You may wonder why this 3D model is suitable exclusively for CURA right?
The most important thing about small RC model airplanes is always the ratio of size to weight.
The lighter a model is, the better its flight characteristics and also the flight time is significantly
increased.
With our unique design process, we manage to make Weights relevant items in a true 1-wall prin-
ting process for the outer skin but also for the filling offer. So we save weight while maintaining the
necessary stability.
Here we show you how to get started from a standard CURA profile Make settings. For this model
we only need 4, easy to create profiles.
It is absolutely necessary to observe the information provided by PLANEPRINT.com in order:
to slice the component correctly. However, it may make sense to perfect your 3D printing by
additionally performing several hiring activities depending on your printer and the filament used.
The development of a complex, airworthy RC flight model to express on any standard 3D printer is
a very complex and extensive process. Therefore, we appeal to your fairness not to forward the STL
data you have acquired to third parties. Our STL files are provided with indelible copyright water-
marks that can be verified at any time.
Thank you for your understanding and have fun with your PLANEPRINT MODEL!
IMPORTANT FOR
THE 1-WALL-PRINT!
In order to print airfoils of the lowest possi-
ble weight with high stability, it is necessa-
ry to print with only one wall line (Nozzle 0.4
mm). Decisive here is the adhesion between
the layers! To achieve this, you must print at
a much higher temperature than normal. As
a guideline, 230 ° C is a good starting point.
The parts-cooling fan should be set to 0% or
a maximum of 20%. Since not every printer
works the same, it may be necessary to make
small adjustments to these settings.
For slicing all Planeprint
models, four profiles have
to be created in Cura:
PROFILE P1_fullbody
PROFILE P2_hollowbody
PROFILE P3_surface
PROFILE P4_flex

Basic information
Gluing the parts
To glue the fuselage and wing parts well, use medium-liquid CA adhesive.
First check whether the parts go well together. Then apply a lot of CA glue to the part with the connections
and all surfaces that will touch later (except the bowden tubes). Put the parts together and align the parts per-
fectly. If glue comes out, wipe with a cloth. Then spray activator spray on the glue points.
IMPORTANT For a strong connection, the adhesive surfaces should be sanded. Please only use fresh CA
glue and activator spray for curing! The adhesive connections must hold perfectly!
Connection pieces
This surfaces should be sanded

Basic information
Installation of the TPU hinges
First insert the hinge into the movable flap and add a drop of liquid CA adhesive into the gap.
Wait for the glue to drain completely, then spray the activator on it.
Then put the flap in the wing until the flap touches the spacers and put a drop of CA glue on the hinge.
Wait again for the glue to run in, and then spray the activator on it.
Do not use too much glue, the flap must move easily!
These spacers ensure the correct
gap distance. Don´t remove!
