3D model of tomstanton
The models were repaired and checked for printability.
This plane is difficult to build setup and fly. So I only recommend this for
...Zeig mehr experienced/advanced radio control modellers. You will need experience with basic radio control equipment, 3D printing, flight controllers, PID tuning, Arduino programming and soldering. You must also be capable of flying a model helicopter or drone in acro/rate mode (no auto levelling), as well as a fixed wing plane.
Required hardware:
1pc Carbon tube Dia: 8mm Length: 1000mm
1pc Carbon tube Dia: 8mm Length: 500mm
2pcs 80x4mm rod/tube (to secure rubber bands for attaching wing)
2pcs Rubber bands (150x6mm)
10pcs M3x16 bolts (mounting motors and tail section)
2pcs M3x10 bolts (tilt spar clevis and bushing mount)
Other materials:
5mm foam board/depron foam
glue (I used foam safe CA)
1mm piano wire (pushrods)
Packing tape (covering foam surfaces)
14Awg silicone wire (power supply to ESCs)
Electronics required:
1pc Receiver 9ch (capable of outputting sbus and PWM simultaneously)
1pc Flight controller
1pc Arduino Leonardo Pro Micro
1pc TGY-390DMH for tilt servo
3pcs Corona 929MG Servos for ailerons and elevator
2pcs T-motor F80 1900kv
2pcs T-motor ESCs
2pcs 7x3.5x3 Propellers
1pc 5v BEC
1pc Capacitor 1000uF (smoothing the 5v supply to arduino)
fuselage print settings: (note: some of these settings are specific to simplify3D and I'm not sure if they are available in other slicers)
Material - PLA Plastic
Nozzle Diameter - 0.4mm
Layer height - 0.2mm
Extrusion multiplier - 1.05 (5% more than my usual setting)
Nozzle temperature - 220C (hot for PLA to get strong layer bonds)
Bed temperature - 40C
Cooling fan - OFF
Print speed - 1500mm/min
Thin wall behavior - Allow single extrusion walls
Allow perimeter overlap - 50%
Minimum Extrusion Length - 0.00mm
Minimum printing width - 50%
Maximum printing width - 200%
Endpoint extension distance - 0.2mm
Infill - 10% (for the sold rear section of fuselage)
The rest of the parts can be printed with following settings:
Material: I used PLA
Infill: 30%
Outer walls: 2
Top/bottom layers: 3
The remaining setting are flexible to your preferred options.
