USS Enterprise 1701-F Print in Place Glider

Ultralight Glider - Start Trek (Star Trek Online STO) Odyssey Class USS Enterprise 1701-F.

Print at 0.2mm layer height.  Carefully remove from build plate (use scraper from front and slowly work your way down through the nacelles).  

If you are printing with the Classic Perimeter Generator, be sure to enable thin-wall detection.  Also, PETG may be too flexible for this model to fly well (most PLAs seem to work well). 

Hook a rubber band up through the front bumper:

It should fly pretty straight straight off the build plate, but if you need some lift bend the rear hull up a little to act as an elevator/flap:

Special thanks to @becki05_321509 for designing a launcher to make rubber band launching easier - find the great model here:
