Description

Hand Throw Glider for Indoor Fun

Awesome little glider and his big mama. Super quick print. 

Also a practical tool to calibrate your first layer and test layer adhesion.

Works with generic PLA, PETG, ABS, ASA

Polyterra however is a bit on the heavy side and doesn't offer the best experience.

Print Settings:

Layer height: 0.1mm (works best) - 0.2mm

Infill: 100%

Outer Lines: 

Min 2 for small version

Min 3 for big version

Placement: Glider is rotated 45° in z-axis so that the infill of the first layer goes along the wings. This gives some rigidity when bending the wings and stabilizers.

Preparations:

  • Bend wings slightly upwards
  • Bend tail to a V shaped stabilizer
  • Bend tail slightly upwards directly behind the wings.

Launch:

Hand launch
  • Grab directly behind the wings and throw gently
