Lightweight Reaper Glider - 5g Print in Place
Print Profile(2)
Description
This is the Reaper Glider a lightweight glider coming in at just 5.2 grams. I took inspiration from the MQ-9 reaper drone, and the F-117 Nighthawk for the design.
It's easy to print, print in place for no assembly, and only takes 20 min!!
The glider is designed to have an optimal center of mass for the best gliding experience.
After printing I recommend waiting for the print bed to fully cool down before removing the glider to ensure it comes off smoothly without breaking for warping as the wings are very thin and delicate.
For the best flight experience I also recommend to bend the two rear wings in an X shape as shown in the pictures. This will allow for straight smooth flying as there isn't a vertical stabilizer.
If you plan on not use my Print Profile the best Print Settings are 75% infill with 2 walls at 0.2mm layer height.
Happy Printing and Have Fun!
