Description

Model design based on the Standard Lightcycle from Tron Evolution Battle Grids. Build video below.

 

Total print time will be around 14 hours and requires 287g of Black PLA and 66g of White PLA

 

After printing this several times and fine tuning my settings here is what I recommend:
All Plates:

  • Wall Generator: Arachne
  • Infill: 15% Adaptive Cubic
  • Supports: Tree (slim), On build plate only

 

Plate specific settings:
Plate 4: Enable brims

 

Glow in the dark version:
Change the white filament in Bambu Studio to your glow filament. Be sure to use AMS Funnel Protectors like these: https://makerworld.com/en/models/40194

 

LED version:
PLA Black for the body and PLA White for the lighting parts work best.
If you use the same LED strips I did and cut to the same length, the total count of LEDs will be 75.


Here is the wire and LED strip lengths to cut and solder:

 

Section:Wire Length (in MM)
From D1 Mini to 5 LED38
5 LED to 12 LED52
12 LED to 12 LED76
12 LED to 5 LED44
5 LED to 4 LED13
4 LED to 1 LED30
1 LED to 4 LED121
4 LED to 1 LED35
1 LED to 12 LED112
12 LED to 12 LED28
12 LED to 7 LED63


Materials & Tools needed for LED version:
- Hot Glue Gun
- Soldering Iron and solder
- Super Glue
- One D1 Mini LED Controller (https://a.co/d/fsTktYH)
- About 4 feet of WS2812B Individually Addressable LED strip (https://a.co/d/74lqeoP)
- About 2 feet of 3 pin 20aeg wire (https://a.co/d/fAxiXLk)

 

If you wish to have the lighting segmented for controlling each section of light here are the segments for WLED (in order of wiring):
Top Front Panel 1: 0 - 5
Front Wheel 1: 5 - 17
Front Wheel 2: 17 - 29 (Reverse Direction)
Top Front Panel 2: 29 - 34
Dash Panel 1: 34 - 38
Engine 1: 38 - 39
Dash Panel 2: 39 - 43
Engine 2: 43 - 44
Rear Wheel 1: 44 - 56
Rear Wheel 2: 56 -68 (Reverse Direction)
Rear Light: 68 - 75

 

Here is the WLED API Command I used for the lighting effects in my model if you want to just copy this which will apply the Segments as well:
