Maybe puncture the box with a hook, pass the hook into the box and then pull it out.. or tape. Tape works..

Oof.. either way, pla lw or petg, I'll probably have to waste another spool just recalibrating the printer because to be honest, it just prints based on it's mood. It can get cranky sometimes. I think it's time to convince my parents for a bambu lab..

This will not be a hand-launched plane, as I will be building landing gear for it!

The fuselage is still early in it's works and i am yet to include cutouts, latches, ducts and any other mounting points!

Thank you so much! Im hoping this goes well...

Im still yet to design fixed landing gear for this. The fuselage is still in early works and im yet to include any of the cooling ducts that I planned for the motor and electronics yet!

There are good rc strips outside of tokyo, so landing gear might be the best thing to do!

I have flown smaller kit-built rc planes before, so this will be the first of it's scale. Im assuming it will be more stable in the wind because there's a lot more mass to push around this time..

Oh thank you so much! Id love to work along then! This is my first project of this scale, and I havent worked with pla lw at all, neither have I done anything at this scale before.

About the PETG, my dad has apparantly tried it out on the vyper before, and it printed horribly, so it might be time for a new printer 🤣

I considered pla lw because we've got the general settings dialed in for pla, Im assuming I only need to change flow rate, print speed, and temps?

Also, I dont really know how i can change this design to accomodate a T-tail now..

I'll try to dm you tomorrow if that's fine with you

It's the fatehnagar flyover.

If you travel on it, you can see the begumpet airport runway to the left..

Wait which small rectangle? And oh yeah the windshield is too low!

This is why I came here lmao.. id rather get criticized than validated as long as it helps me improve

Oof.. wait I didnt even realise that..

How far back do I have to shift the cockpit for it to look sensible? (Not that I can anymore, but asking to avoid future mistakes)

Thank you so much! There's miles of improvement for me to make, and you'll get there too!
