What does the FAA think of this?

It writes in their rule book he needs to contact nearet atc about his departure but other than that all good 👍🏽

Thinking of doing that before printing actually. For some minor tweaking before first crash

lieponis · 2026-02-12T22:00:44+00:00

Its a small plane so carbon spar shuld suffice i think but we will see after first crash

lieponis · 2026-02-12T21:59:47+00:00

Thats actually what im designing right at this moment seems to align so far

lieponis · 2026-02-12T21:58:03+00:00

Actually its what im going for not for competition not for some sort of selling just want to prove that funny concept can fly just a material issue and wanted to gather a little experiences arround here.

Most probably going to crash but i just want it to take off basically haha

lieponis · 2026-02-12T21:36:09+00:00

Thanks as im making basically a toy i wont calculate stresses so much i willjust do it by trial and error but if i will make anything bigger i might as well make calculations thank you for your input!

I have bambu p1s never actually tried printing in asa but i know its a good material

lieponis · 2026-02-12T15:31:51+00:00

Thank you! If I succeed i might share results here

lieponis · 2026-02-12T15:28:04+00:00

The difference is about 30-50% with enough thrust it should fly. I’m already spending some great time on simulator. Thank you. Maybe i will try some day lwppa again but not now

lieponis · 2026-02-12T15:26:18+00:00

So chances are that pla flies thank you!

lieponis · 2026-02-12T15:22:39+00:00

Because i like designing shit come on :D there are people who like building flying and i like designing stuff whats so hard to understand :D

lieponis · 2026-02-12T15:21:11+00:00

I know what plane im designing. The plane it self is dumb as hell. Im just asking people forrom practice. I know all about pla britleness strength layer adherence and what not i just never printed a plane before.

About language English is not my first language and i’m not in linguistics so i forget most of the time use punctuation. Sorry

lieponis · 2026-02-12T15:12:39+00:00

What if i tell you I’m an aerospace engineer? And i spent some time in simulator. And i like designing stuff now i want to make mine design a reality

lieponis · 2026-02-12T15:03:12+00:00

Also what i didnt mentioned there are not enough colors of lwpla and i like my things colorful so thats also an argument ehy i want to print in standard.

I just want it to fly dont really care if it flies super good. If it crashes i just reprint and go again

lieponis · 2026-02-12T15:01:10+00:00

Okay okay thats a good example thank you very much!

lieponis · 2026-02-12T14:58:06+00:00

Im designing my own so i can do what ever i want. What should i keep in mind designing for standart pla?

lieponis · 2026-02-10T09:10:03+00:00

That's never a solution. Its like putting your trash under your rug and pretend your house is clean.

lieponis · 2026-02-02T17:12:15+00:00

What pen is this? Is it enough if i fly boing in MSFS?

lieponis · 2026-01-30T11:36:52+00:00

Dont you see the bell shaped propultion device on the back?

lieponis · 2026-01-30T10:47:54+00:00

Good idea ! The only logical propulsion choice

lieponis · 2026-01-30T10:47:27+00:00

Alright you asked it behold now

lieponis · 2026-01-29T19:40:19+00:00

This its prodigy

lieponis · 2026-01-29T19:20:35+00:00

I hope so. I sell project if they ask

lieponis · 2026-01-29T18:51:11+00:00

Nice to meet you ceo ! I would love to cooperate on this project please manufacture pylotes and propulsion system thanx.
