Motte slope soaring glider attempt

A year ago, on May 1st 2024, I bought as birthday present a Bambu Lab A1 3d printer. One of the ideas for it was 3d printing glider and line-of-sight planes.

Since then I learned these lessons:

  • Fusrock PLA-Aero Pro can be printed on an open frame bedslinger. This is the filament — https://www.fusrock.com/index.php/pla-aero-pro/.
  • 3d printing planes is hard at the assembly stage. All parts are glue together. When using superglue this is unforgiving. Epoxy works but makes the assembly a multi day process.
  • I do not really like the process of building planes per say, mostly flying, so a foam or CF kit would have been more aligned to my goals.
  • ASA-aero is impossible to print on A1 https://www.fusrock.com/index.php/asa-aero/

I was however successful in assembling a slope soaring glider from these instructions https://3d-printz.at/produkt/motte-700-opensource/ Was fun working with active foaming PLA and gifting this as a kit.
