Description

Check out the next in my series of of general aviation plane models in kit-card format. I'm not a big fan of the wasted filament, so these are without the part trees. (May add them later) As with the Aeronca Champ, the control surfaces are moveable. Takes a bit of force for the initial bend, especially the ailerons, but as long as you don't flex them too far, they've proven to be pretty durable.

 

This kit should go together with minimal effort when printed as per the attached profile. Main thing is to ensure you're printing at 0.2mm layer height. Variation may limit or eliminate movement of control surfaces entirely.

 

Please let me know what you think of this model. I'm new to this and am always looking for feedback on how to improve my skills.

 

And if you have ideas for future airplanes, please let me know! Though, I will likely not delve into WWII fighters right away as there's already considerable offerings for those. I'm a general aviation guy myself and love the vintage birds, so will focus on that unless someone has a great aircraft that needs modeling.

 

Thank you again and happy printing!

 

Update:

Changed out the propeller so that it spins when you blow on it, fine-tuned clearances.  Enjoy!
