Join our Discord server Section 1: Model Information The Titan Eagle is the ultimate 1.6m twin motor UAV designed for long range flight and payload carrying capacity. At the time of release, the Eagle holds three 3D printed endurance records: A max distance from launch of 85km, a total distance travelled of 197km, and a flight time of 3h57min (on just a 6S4P 21700 battery) - making it one of the most capable 3D printed UAVs in the world.

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.

Titan Dynamics Titan Dynamics Webpage Visit our Facebook page Join our Discord server 4.3: Tuning “hole horizontal expansion” It is very important to check the fitment of the carbon rods in their holes on the first parts you print. Because everyone may be using different printers, materials and slicer settings, it is not possible to provide the models with a slicing profile and hole size that will work for everyone.

Ideally you will print each part without any extra aids, however this may not be possible for many, especially those printing without an enclosure for their printer.

Join our Discord server Section 6: Final Setup & Tuning Tips • Titan Dynamics strongly recommends the use of Arduplane for all our models. If you encounter an issue in flight, the data logs Ardupilot creates are invaluable for finding the root cause of any issue and increasing future chances of success.
