Description
This is a model of the X-47 B Unmanned Combat Air System (UCAS) modeled with Autodesk Fusion. I wanted to test it using Bambu's AMS Lite to see how it does. This is my first publishing that will require an AMS if you want the decals and multi colored logo on the model, otherwise, you're welcome to print it with a single color. There are very small parts like the antennas that would require a pair of tweezers, but they are optional. This model will require small amounts of glue. Please take your time removing the prints from the build plate, some components are thin and can potentially break. Lastly, do not repair non-manifold edges in the slicer, otherwise you'll lose all the decal.
Â
Note: Please be aware that the flush volume multiplier for the published print profile is specific to the filament/colors used in the print, different color contrasts may require a different multiplier.Â

About the aircraft:
Â
The Northrop Grumman X-47 is an experimental unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) developed as part of the U.S. Navy’s Unmanned Combat Air System (UCAS) program. The X-47 is designed to operate from aircraft carriers and perform missions that would traditionally be carried out by manned aircraft, including surveillance, reconnaissance, and precision strikes. The X-47 is designed for autonomous operations, which means it can take off, fly, and land without the need for direct human control. Its advanced avionics and software systems enable it to operate from carriers and conduct complex missions.
