Pocket Indoor Glider v6
Print Profile(7)
Description
This thrown indoor glider prints in PLA, using 2g of filament and 6m of print time. It should be thrown like a paper airplane, and matches/exceeds the stability of the previous versions when used properly.
Instructions:
Remove the glider from the build plate, be careful to not warp the wings if the plate is heated. Fold the 2 stabilizers up 90 degrees relative to the downwards-facing head. Make sure that the stabilizers are folded relatively straight, with equal wing space on either side. Lift the elevators 25-40 degrees up relative to the head. Refer to the picture above for troubleshooting.
To throw, grab between the head and wing of the plane with your thumb and index finger. The elevators and stabilizers should be facing up, and the head should be facing down. Throw straight similar to a dart or paper airplane. Use a medium amount of strength.
