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.

Spezielle Druckempfehlungen für alle LW-ASA Bauteile

Die meisten Bauteile der hier veräußerten Jets sind designed und optimiert für eine stabile Leichtbauweise mit LW-ASA. Da dies aufschäumende Filament spezielle Parameter für einen erfolgreichen Druck voraussetzt, welche von Drucker zu Drucker und auch von Slicer zu Slicer variieren, sollten im Vorfeld eigene Druckversuche gemacht werden. Im Internet und auf YouTube findet man sehr viele Tutorials und Tips dazu.

The basic default settings we use with a Bambu Lab X1C and Bambu Studio as slicers are listed here.
