| edtherenderman | Easy Built Taube | Build | 02-Jan-20 12:30 |  | | Views : 763 | | Here are the wings. I printed the ribs, trailing edges and wing tips on the 3D printer. The leading edge and stringers are balsa. I used CA to cement everything together, which seemed to work well. These wings are really heavy with all the plastic pieces. I can see that there are some weight savings I can do to improve it, but I think this type of construction will always be heavy. |

| edtherenderman | Easy Built Taube | Build | 02-Jan-20 12:23 |  | | Views : 779 | | I also created many of the detail parts, like the engine, propeller, radiators and wheels using 3D modeling techniques. This time I used Blender and ZBrush to create the parts, and printed them out using my DLP printer. The DLP can print at .05 mm resolution, so much finer details. |
