Project description

A printable version of the well-known Bae Hawk, which is used as a jet trainer and light attack aircraft and is still in service.

Like the original, this 40mm EDF version has a pendulum elevator, which is controlled by a 6g servo. Due to its very good-natured flight characteristics, this aircraft can easily be started by hand.

Special printing recommendations for all LW-PLA components

Most components of the jets sold here are designed and optimized for a stable lightweight construction with LW-PLA. Since this foaming filament requires special parameters for successful printing, which vary from printer to printer and also from slicer to slicer, you should make your own printing tests in advance. You can find many tutorials and tips on the Internet and on YouTube.

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