F-104
Version: 1.0 (12.2025)
Project description
Two printable versions of the famous F-104 Starfighter are available here as a basic version or a larger performance version for you to build, all in one complete package and were developed in cooperation with Joel Vlashof (VJM Aviation) and Wim Aubroeck designed as either a single-seat or two-seat version. Particular emphasis was placed on a highly detailed and accurate representation of the entire jet, featuring numerous scale details. Both jet sizes are designed for a 70 mm EDF engine. The performance version also features retractable landing gears.

Special printing recommendations LW-ASA
Most of the components of the jets sold here are designed and optimized for stable, lightweight construction using LW-ASA. Since this foaming filament requires specific parameters for successful printing, which vary from printer to printer and slicer to slicer, you should conduct your own test prints beforehand. You can find many tutorials and tips on this topic online and on YouTube.
