- S6063 wing profile - Much more stable flight characteristics
- Internal air inlet duct has been increased -better airflow to
engine
- Cockpit (needs at least 250 mm height 3D printer). The plug to make the canopy is included. Pilot was found online and scaled to fit.
- Mounting points under the wings for Pylons with armaments
(Pylons and Armaments will be sold seperate on Cult. https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/armaments-pack-for-f-16-and-a-10-by-sindregjertsen. Notify me if there are specific armaments you would like to have)
-Choose between 9g and 22g servos on wings and elevators for better acro abilities.
-Prepared surface for gyro.

The V2 zip file only contains the files that have been updated. The rest should be reused from V1.
A new video is under construction.

Mine is printed with a Prusa MK3S with a bed size of 250 x 210 x 210 mm. Some parts need to be rotated to fit the bed.
The landing struts are homemade and a guide will come soon on those. They are made from standard aluminum pipes, m3 bolts and nuts, some grub screws and springs. Made with a standard drill and dremel tool.
Disclaimer
This is a complex plane to print and build. This should not be your first RC plane both to build and to fly. If used for tabletop display only, then its not so hard. A good tuned printer and good bed adhesion is recommended. Some afterwork on a few of the printed parts are necessary. Most parts are printed with 1 perimeter but see the print instruction for details for each part. This guide is not complete yet but it is a work in progress.
Large STL files due to some complex form and high resolution.
If you have any questions, just ask and I will try my best to help.
