Description
This is the final iteration of my lightweight 3D printable glider, developed and optimized after beta phase.
During the beta stage, I tested balance and tail geometry. Based on "flight trials", the rear section (tail assembly) has been refined for improved stability and smoother glide performance. The result is a cleaner, more reliable version that prints easily and performs consistently.
The model is designed to be:
Easy to print
Lightweight
Aerodynamically stable
Beginner friendly
PLA recommended (less prone to breaking than PETG )
0.2 mm layer height
2–3 perimeters
100% infill (don't be cheap :)))
No supports required
Print flat on the bed
This version replaces the beta model and represents the finalized geometry.
Happy Printing 🖨
If still your model breaks or does not fly properly . LET ME KNOW. I do not want to make false promises!
For more practical prints, clever tools, and useful everyday upgrades — new models coming soon.
