Description

Glider with a futuristic-looking outline, prints in one step

Instructions

 

Print with 100% fill, I used PLA with 0.2mm first layer, 0.1mm layers for the rest.
You'll probably need to bend up the tail a little to get it trimmed and bend up the wings to get some dihedral (for roll stability) - see the photos for what I mean, try to keep it symmetrical!
It's quite hard to throw; I find the best way is to hold either side of the fuselage forward of the wing root - try not to twist when you throw!

There are now two versions of the STL, one with a 0.4mm thick fin and one with 0.8mm thickness
