Page 16: Section 4: 3D Printing
Section 4: 3D printing 4.1: Things to know before you start printing. 1. Titan Dynamics strongly recommends using Polymaker Polylite prefoamed LWPLA for the best results. This filament is much easier to tune your printer for and has less stringing than active foaming filaments. -

Page 21: Section 5: Assembly Of 3D Printed Parts
Below are a few exploded views of the Viper to help with assembly. The spar layout for Viper is as depicted below. None of the spars need to be glued in, they will all be retained by the printed parts. The two wing spars that intersect the fuselage are the joiners for the wings and the fuselage and can be removed completely from the fuselage and wing during transport. - Page 22 Titan Dynamics Titan Dynamics Webpage Visit our Facebook page Join our Discord server • Medium CA glue should be used to assemble all fuselage parts • When first putting the glued parts together be sure to wipe any excess glue off before it sets.
- Page 23 Titan Dynamics Titan Dynamics Webpage Visit our Facebook page Join our Discord server • Use care when aligning parts for gluing. With medium CA, you should have a few seconds to get alignment right. Small mistakes in alignment can stack up and eventually lead to a part not fitting perfectly.

Page 27: Section 8: Ardupilot Setup Tips
Section 8: Ardupilot setup tips Please read in detail the documentation for setting up quadplanes on Ardupilot: https://ardupilot.org/plane/docs/quadplane-building.html Viper is a tri-tiltrotor. The front two motors tilt while the rear is stationary. Q_FRAME_CLASS = 7 Q_TILT_MASK = 3 Q_TILT_TYPE = 0 Please read in detail the setup instructions for tilt rotor VTOLs here: https://ardupilot.org/plane/docs/guide-tilt-rotor.html... - Page 28 Titan Dynamics Titan Dynamics Webpage Visit our Facebook page Join our Discord server Use of the airspeed sensor is highly recommended. Hover PIDs will vary with motor and prop setup, but it’s highly recommended to greatly bump the yaw PIDs to get a less wiggly yaw in hover.
