1:285 scale helicopters for 3D printing. Recently updated to fix scale discrepancies and to add additional models. Please use v02 .zip folder as it is the most recent, the v01 is included in case you purchased it before and want to go back to the old files.
Included models:
I recommend downloading and printing the free WW2 training aircraft models first to see how they go before purchasing these aircraft. If they print successfully the other aircraft collections should be able to print just fine.
Models are created and intended to be printed in 1:285 scale, they should be printable larger, but likely won't work smaller than this. I printed them using a Prusa i3 Mk3. I recommend slicing with Cura and using tree supports. You'll likely get the best results using the .STLs of the aircraft that are sliced in half (labeled L or R in the folders). I find leaving a small gap equal to the size of my extruder nozzle diameter between the brim and the model in the slicer settings creates a nice clean edge when printing the left and right sides of each aircraft.
I'm finding that Cura 5.0.0 has trouble slicing thin wings, so I recommend Cura 4.9.0 instead.
