Profiles

Kit With Frame
- plane in a kit card format ideal for gifting to others
Kit No Frame
- plane without a kit frame ideal for assembly right off the printer

Filament

As shown:

Bambu Lab PLA Gray
Bambu Lab PLA Black
Bambu Lab PLA Silver

Tips

Model requires close tolerances to ensure snug but not tight or loose fit
- Make sure the model cools to room temperature before assembly
- Ensure filament is properly calibrated with no excessive over extrusion
- If there is some over extrusion the parts may need to be lightly sanded at interfaces for fitment
Ensure good bed adhesion
- Make sure printer is fully calibrated
- Make sure print bed is clean & dry (soapy water is my favorite for cleaning - simple & works)
- Make sure filament is dry (wet filament can generate non-continuous flow that can cause bed adhesion issues)
- Cooling & Temps - make sure they are correct for your printer, build plate, and filament
- Smooth PEI plate is recommended

Assembly

Remove all pieces from the kit
Debur as needed to smooth edges
Insert connector into the lower fuselage half
Connect the top fuselage to the lower fuselage
Insert Vertical Tails
Insert missiles into wing
Place airplane onto stand
Enjoy!
