Bristol Type 167 Brabazon

thingiverse

Bristol Type 167 Brabazon Prototype of a massive transatlantic airliner built by the British after World War II. If you want to learn more about its fascinating history, I highly recommend checking out this informative video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-AZRtI366w (A great YouTube channel) The model is scaled down to 1/1000 and printed using an ELEGOO Mars resin printer at a scale of 1/500. There are multiple files available, including the Brabazon model itself, as well as inflight versions with closed gear shafts and no propeller blades. All models have cut-off wingtips, which made it necessary to create separate wings files. As usual, the propellers are included in an extra file. For those who need even smaller prints or larger printing areas, a full version of the model is also available. If you require custom versions with different cut sizes, feel free to comment or send me a private message. As you can see from the test print image, there was a slight failure at the nose area, but I'm confident that it was due to a technical issue with the printer rather than any problem with the file. If you encounter any issues during printing, please don't hesitate to let me know. I want to emphasize that I'm not the original creator of this 3D model. All credit for its design goes to helijah, who made it available on cgtrader.com: https://www.cgtrader.com/free-3d-models/aircraft/historic/bristol-type-167-brabazon I've adjusted the model for 3D printing by removing interior components and thickening the wings, with permission from helijah.
