Filament

As shown:

  • Gray Profiles
    • eSun PLA+ Gray (airframe)
    • Bambu Lab PLA Black (canopy & tail)
    • Bambu Lab PETG Translucent Clear (afterburner only)
  • Camo Profiles
    • Bambu Lab PLA Cyan (airframe)
    • Bambu Lab PLA White (airframe)
    • Bambu Lab PLA Light Gray (airframe & missiles)
    • Bambu Lab PETG Translucent Clear (afterburner only)

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 clear translucent PETG filament into slot (optional, for LEDs) & trim to length (NOTE: Tight fit slot.  Use pliers for leverage to push filament through slot).

  • Add LEDs to lower fuselage (optional)

     

  • Insert afterburner & warm white LED to upper fuselage (optional)

  • Insert bar into lower fuselage

  • Connect upper fuselage to lower fuselage
  • Insert vertical tail into upper fuselage slot

  • Insert missiles and fuel tank to the wing

  • Insert missiles onto wing at remaining slots

  • Insert missiles onto wing tip

  • Place aircraft onto stand

  • Enjoy!

Great print! I used a 0.16 layer height witch made a total of 146 filament changes. A flushing volume of 0.6 was used along with flush into infill. My friend is going to love it, thanks!

another awesome model! I printed it with 2 colors and 2 of these ring fidget toys as flush items. I also printed the ammunition seperate to cut down on poop. between only 2 colors, the fidget toys and printing the ordanice seperate, as well as changing the flush volume settings, was able to put the poop to around 18-20 grams perfect model! I would like to request a MiG-29 as a future project
