Glue the sticks inside that hols leaving about 2cm outside. You can see that the part 9 and 13 of the wings have two holes in it. This stick are some normal barbeque sticks taht you could buy in any supermarket. To glue the wings we first add two wood sticks to each wing. Now we can glue the tail at the middle body. Add the hinges and glue them in place on the tail as shown in the Spitfire plane plans. Leave about 1m or 2mm between the airlerons and the wing. Finnaly we glue the last part of the wings (part 7 and 11) and the wings are ready. Once it dries make sure that they can move without problems. Now we can glue the controls on each wing. Cut two 1cm wide yogurt plastic stripes and glue them inside of the control holes. As hinges I've used plastic form a yogurt case because is flexible and strong. First glue together the two partso of the controls (part 16). Before you add part 7 and 11 you have to put in place the controls 16. Join togheter part 9 with 8 and 13 with 12. That will be a separate part that we will be able to remove whenever we whant and be able to work inside of the plane. Don't glue the nose tip yet (part 2) because there is where we have to screw in place the brushless motor. I glue them using strong super glue first and applying one or two layers of flexible plastic model glue.

Once you have all the files download the plane construction plans and print them on a paper sheet or just have them in front of you on a PC to guide you while glueing. I also print them directly from the Repetier software.ĭon't glue anything till you print all the files.
Once the files are ready I create a g-Code file using Repetier with Slicer. I use Blender to edit my files and Netfab to auto crrect them and make them wather sealed. I own a Prusa i3 and sometimes it fails and I lose the entire print, that's why I print them one by one in case the printer fails.
If you own a very good printer you could print them in packs of two or more files at a time. Now that you have all the STL files you should start printing them one by one.

Printing the full parts means less glueing later. The other one, not recommended, has the same parts but sliced in to smaller parts to print them in smaller amounts of time.
One is the recommended one with the full parts.

zip file extract it in one of your folders. First of all download the STL files from this LINK.
