The Elliptical Winged Plane is a free printable 3D model from Thingiverse by H1tchens. SUMMARY: This plane was intended to be a high efficiency's slope soaring aircraft and because of such does not have mounts for a motor, but a conversion for one would not be to. You can download the STL file from the original listing below and print it at home.
About this model
SUMMARY: This plane was intended to be a high efficiency's slope soaring aircraft and because of such does not have mounts for a motor, but a conversion for one would not be to difficult to come up with if someone is interested in that. The idea behind it was to come up with a lighter way to manufacture 3D printed aircraft (as the existing ones on the market are remarkably heavy) and the logical way to do this is to reduce printed material. The final product (though still a bit heavy) should be within the acceptable wing loading for a slope soarer. Because of this the aircraft uses a traditional spar and rib technique. The plane was intended to use a V-tail system but that is an area that still needs some work and I will update if I get a chance to work on it. Otherwise someone would come …
