Tutorial that goes through how you can design your own lightweight 3D printed parts! 3D printing certainly has it`s place in terms of prototyping, but I also believe it can be of use for applications such as this aircraft fuselage. Not only is it aerodynamic and relatively lightweight, it is also very easy to construct once the design is complete. Therefore allowing quick replacements with minimal effort in the event of a crash.
To not immediately crash the balsa wood wing I am building, I decided to make a foam delta wing of similar size and weight to get a good hang of flying
