Viewer Challange - RC Helicopter (3D Printed)

hobbit666

Is it possible to "Print" a Titan 450 RTF 6CH 3D RC Helicopter type helipoter including the main blades??

 

Have you got enough print area to do it?

 

 

I'm very keen to start a hobby and looking at building my own CNC and 3d printer and i also want to start in the world of RC Helicopters i have a few small indoor ones but want to get out into fresh air lol, but costs are a bit high, so i thought could you "print" one or would costs for just the frame/shell be just the same as buying a kit? Or just print spares when you crash, or even to design your own?

 

 

Cheers

  • I don't think the frame/shell are the expensive parts of the copter.  I mean you won't be able to print props, or motors, or anything which probably have the real cost in them.  And the parts you can print, I'd worry that the fill needed for strength would make them heavier than materials already in use on these.
