Waco CG4a easy print

thingiverse

Easy to print Waco CG4a (WW2 Glider), 1/100 scale, will want some greebling if scaled up. Some details have been changed for looks/ printability. The interior is not detailed but the nose is cut in the right place if you want it hinged up. The walls are slightly too thick to fit my jeep model inside, but a little sanding on the jeep would get it in there. The landing gear is complex, so look at pictures of the glider while you are assembling it. From images I can't tell if these were landed with gear on, or if they relied on the belly skids, or if those were just a backup if the gear broke, so having one landed with no gear might be fine. If anyone knows for sure, add a message and I'll update this. If you want the wing/ tail ribs to show at 1/100 you MUST have "print thin walls" on. If you want it smooth, just turn that off. Be aware: this is a big print compared to the easy print tanks I've done. (you kind of forget how dense tanks are and how big/ empty aircraft are) For reference this is the glider from the scene in Saving Private Ryan with the pilot talking about adding armor to protect a general and taking the whole plane down. Scale by 1.56 for gaslands / hotwheels / 1/64 Scale by 1.786 for 28mm / 1/56
