Description

PDF

the wings should be printed vertically with a brim and one walls/shell. 

2 top and bottom layers 

The epical wing perform better but it's also harder to print.

the fuselage can be printed with 1 or 2 walls depend on your preferred durability.

It's advised to slow down and increase the temperature slightly to improve layer adhesion.

PLA+ or stronger material is preferred

Clearance between parts is 0.25-0.3 mm

ALSO, some extra counterweight is needed on the nose. I just taped some random nonsense until the center of gravity is around ⅓ of the leading edge of the wing.
