Thanks. Heres mine so far. Yes, theres an extra seam in there. Didnt realize until I was a day into this print it was not sliced on the build plate properly. It was level but submerged below the plate. I was using an older version of Cura and it refused to bring the part flush with the plate. Not sure if it was the file size or part dimensions but it just wouldnt do it. Anyway, I printed the missing section separately. A little weight penalty. However, this is earmarked for forward flight only so Im not concerned. I hadnt upgraded Cura. I had heard stories of people having issues with the latest version. I believe if it isnt broken dont fix it. Well, turns out it was broken, so Im now on the latest version. I always pre-align my STLs in CAD for the proper orientation and placement. Since I provide STLs for others, it assures that they have the proper orientation as well. My STLs don't require rotation or placement in the slicer. I was a little out of practice setting orientation in Cura but even so the old version just wasnt cooperating. The new Cura version worked fine. The fact that you didnt pre-align the STLs helps in assembling everything in CAD. Everything is already in the correct location in the world coordinate system. The downside is the extra step in slicing. Its just a matter of preference either way. ImagesView all Images in thread

Awesome i'm printing currently a new model with the bambulab and i will share the weight of every part from now on i'm m using prusa slicer currently for the craftbots, and creality printers more easy in use and i my opnion a smarter slicer and also smart with hiding the seam. We also made progress with the bambulab printer, we are printing with speeds up to 120mm/sec and non printing speeds of 1000mm/s. parts are printed 4 times faster. the layers are briljant, the infill lines gyroide are nicely closed and met don have strings, this because of the fast non printing movements. Just wauw |

RTWILEYRC Registered User | You may want to take a look at "Tail section 1 complete - LWPLA. stl"? There is an error in the mesh just behind the ducted fan pivot hole. It shows up in CAD and Cura. The same error shows up on both sides and in the left/right versions. While it seems to be manifold and slices OK it's definitely not right. ImagesView all Images in thread

Cortana Registered User | Hello, as written by other peoples up in the newsfeed, I am also disappointed. I have been following you on YouTube channel for a wild , and I was so exited to buy, print and fly your F35. At almost $100 the product sold as version 1 buyers are expected to be a finished product with assembly documentations and full parts and systems functional. This is for why peoples given negative feedback. For the positive side, the aircraft is look amazing with an ingenious VTOL design. It could be perfect at this price, with, documentations and all functional elements provided by the photos on your website. |

Joel_Vlashof Registered User Thread OP | Hi everyone! it took me some weeks to figur it out but finally i have read out my settings for the kk2.1 board. The notes are in the file for wich output needs to be connected to the correct one. Keep in mind, i am testing 14000 KV setup to try to gain hover time. Video about setting up the kk2 board is almost done. also the is a really nice forum about this FC in RC groups but hereby i share my settings sofar. this are not my final settings but just a rough guideline. Send me a telegram of messenger ap, somehow i cannot share EXCEL files |

Years and years people are asking for files, so i really treid to make something cool easy and cheap for you all. Until now most people are happy, and even 4 people are building it privatley at my place. i will make more videos about that and more photos as requested by you. Dont forget the setup with ESC, servo's and EDF inside this 89 eur file/model is like 700eur. |
