Variable-sweep wing, Tu22M Backfire-Mod (no hardware needed)

This is a modified Tu-22M Backfire bomber requested by a friend To ensure better printing, certain strength, and the implementation of variable-sweep wings (approx 26°), this is not a one-to-one replica, and of course, it was consulted before production(Small size, wings extended, approximate dimensions: 121*100*40)

Here are some precautions: Print with caution if you mind!!

1.The fuselage's three tail fins only have 6 walls, do not pull forcefully when removing from the build plate, otherwise the tail fins will break!!

2.The cockpit canopy is printed vertically, when installing, press directly above the buckle to prevent the front end from breaking!! And don't apply too much force when opening and closing~~!!

3.The two missile parts, do not pull forcefully when removing, otherwise they will break!!

4.The wheels' smoothness depends on the filament you use, it could rotate in my test!!

The GIF animation below is the assembly diagram:

1. Install the wings into the slot

2. Install the wing clip For the small size, you need to use a hard object to push it in, do not try to press directly with your hand!!

3. Cockpit canopy installation Press the position in the red circle on the left in the image below (When opening, also press here to slightly lift the cover before opening), to prevent the front end from breaking!!

4.The wheels are directional, install with the stepped side facing outward (red box in the image above)

5. Install other components

In the image below, the green and green circled parts (total 3) are the supports to be removed, the blue arrow parts are the skirts to be removed!! You will need a sprue cutter to snip them off or a small knife to scrape them off, be careful when using tools!!

Note: 1. Both PLA and PETG can be printed. It's best to understand the characteristics of these two materials before printing to avoid printing failures!! For example, PLA can become brittle if left for a long time or at low temperatures, while PETG has good toughness. Please choose the filament that suits you!!

        2. If it's for younger children, and the parts are small and easy to disassemble, it's better to glue them firmly with 502 or other adhesives to prevent them from being swallowed!!

        3. If there are no special requirements, please do not use your own advanced process settings for printing~ to avoid printing failures!!

If your printd part has local spaghetti, or the filament doesn't stick to the build plate, please recall if you touched that area (hands secrete sweat and oil, touching it has a very high chance of causing spaghetti)  or if the build plate is dirty. The solution is to search online for how to clean a 3D print plate!! If other problems occur, please describe it in the comments section and add pictures, so it's easier for us to solve it~  Otherwise, I can't imagine the situation = =!!
