But, yeah, you can only print one at a time. You don't have to scale or rotate the part. ZIP file) are already oriented and ready to print. Let's lice a wing part as an example, let's take the part 7 which is left wing part A. So let's see how to print the main parts.

Let's slice it ang save the Gcode.Īs you can see above, we have a total of 20 main parts and a few small extra parts like elastic rubber hook, aileron, elevator and rudder hook for servo motor and so on. Open REPETIER and import the part, in this case a wing part. In the next part we will see all the aprts, the weight of each and the Slic3r settings and how to print them. I give final details and create a lot of STL files and make sure that all are printable. And to be more specific a wall of only 2 perimeters so it will be very light. I create a plane object and divide the plane here, now I have the front part of the plane but it is a full block. Let’s take as an example the nose of the plane. I’ve created a plane and divided the plane body into basic parts and then worked on each part. I’ll later change these parts and add all the fine details with more curves. Then I’ve made the wings and made sure that it has some aerodynamics. I first made the main body as some kind of a tube following the blueprints more or less. Use a lot of vertices so the final design will have good details. Ok, I’ve started editing a basic body for the plane.

This won’t be a Blender tutorial, but, leave in the comment section below if you would like to see a full basic Blender tutorial on my channel. Press the Z key to see wireframe so we can see through the design. Nest we add a second image, select front view and add the second photo, Now, if we press key 7 we can see the top view and if we press key 1 we can see the side view. Here we go to background image and select top view and open the top photo that we’ve just created for the blueprints. Now let’s open Blender and press the N key. Once I had the photos, I’ve edited them in Photoshop for the top and side view. So, to start with I needed the blueprints of a yak 55 plane and I’ve got that from google. I know there are a lot of better software but this is the one I got used to. The first thing that I will do is explain you how I’ve made each part.
