PLANEPRINT Swift S1
Radio-Controlled Gliders for RC Pilots
Overview
The Planeprint Swift S1 is the start of a series of super-lightweight scale models that are also suitable for larger indoor halls or small outdoor areas. To be suitable for indoor use, an extremely low wing loading is required, which cannot be achieved even with LW 3D printing filaments. But the combination with lightweight foam sheets (Depron, EPP, polystyrene) makes it possible.
The fuselage and the D box of the wing are printed from LW PLA in Vase mode (Spiralize in Cura) without retract, reinforced with carbon and supplemented with foam plates. This enables very light models that still look like scale airplanes and not just glued panels. The flight characteristics of the Planeprint Swift S1 are very simple and slow.
The Swift S1 is only available in the tow release version and can be towed with any park or shock flyer, just hang a line on the motorized model and have fun!
