"I see them. Y-wings, heavy shields and turret guns."

The BTL Y-wing starfighter, also known to as the Y-wing starfighter/bomber or more simply as the BTL-series, Y-wing fighter, or Y-wing and nicknamed the wallowing pigs, was a series of multi-role starfighter-bombers manufactured by Koensayr Manufacturing.

Printing Guide

It is recommended to use the print profile I have provided to print this model. I can't guarantee that you will achieve the same success I have, but after several test prints and trial and error, I know this to work. I also recommend printing on a smooth surface PEI plate so your pieces are not textured.

Filament

The print profile is separated by color on each plate. You can use whatever filament you have on hand, but I used:

• Bambu Lab Gray PLA Basic for the Light Gray
• eSun PLA+ White
• Sunlu PLA Pure Yellow
• Sunlu Meta PLA Black
• Sunlu Meta PLA Chocolate for Brown

Print Settings

The print profile is set up to print two wall loops and 10% infill on Cubic, however you can tweak to your liking.

Supports

Again, I recommend the settings I have in the Print Profile. Most parts can be printed without supports, as the Bambu bridges the pieces very well, but the ones that need them are already set up to be supported and also easily removable. Some may need needle nose pliers to be removed.

Assembly

Look at the diagram below to assemble. Pretty simple. Some parts fit great some are tight and some are loose, but overall it holds together.

That about covers it, I think… Happy printing and building!
