3D Printed Miniature Glider - Balsa Glider Style!!!

thingiverse

Awesome miniature 3D printed glider that's reminiscent of balsa wood gliders many of us adored as kids. Prints and assembles at lightning speed, making it an absolute blast to fly. Flies amazingly well, and if you catch a headwind just right, you can achieve incredibly long glide times and distances. Check out our instructional video on how to build them: https://youtu.be/uy2kXmUjdzQ We'll also post more detailed information about this project on our website as soon as possible: https://www.3d-flight.com/ Important note: We used a .2mm nozzle and applied a single outer layer to the wing and fuselage to minimize weight and keep the wing loading down. The glider may crack or break, but repairing it is quick and easy – just reattach with super glue and accelerator (optional). They print so fast that you can easily print multiple at once. To assemble, simply use some super glue and an accelerator (if needed) to put everything together. To achieve the desired weight, we attached a small fishing weight (2g) to the front of the glider.
