    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. If you aren’t able to purchase...

A part printed at 3% gyroid is comparable weight to the same part printed at 7% cubic subdivision. Polycarbonate, PETG or other high-temp filament should be used for the motor mounts and wing bay covers.
