Description

Heli Flyer V1 - A hand pull launcher that prints in less than 1 hour.

 

 

Features:

  • Very easy to print
  • Easy assembly (1 dab of super glue required)
  • Under 1hr print time
  • No support needed
  • Fun for kids and big kids
  • Simple and effective rack and pinion design
  • The propeller/rotor launches over 15 feet in the air with a good pull
  • Only uses 20g of filament per Heli

 

Assembly:

  • Push the skids into the body until fully seated. Face the flat sides inward for the best aesthetic.
  • Add a small amount of super glue to the pin of the ‘Gear’ and push the ‘Propeller’ in place.
  • Allow the glue to fully set, or use some activator before testing it out.

Usage:

  1. Insert the ‘Rack’ into the ‘Body’. There is a small slot in the ‘Rack’ and a small protrusion in the ‘Body’ to help guide the ‘Rack’ into the correct place.
  2. Drop the ‘Propeller’ onto the pin in the centre of the ‘Body’
  3. Push the ‘Rack’ to the forward position
  4. Pull it back as fast and straight as you can using the ring-pull at the rear.

 

This is great fun for kids and is easy enough for younger kids to operate themselves (My 5 year old got it in no time)

 

I hope you like it! :)

I had accidentally put three stars. The model is great! but I printed a lot of them and realized that on some the tracks would not stick fully. and yes I did clean my plate with dawn ultra and microfiber, followed by 99 percent alcohol. Fof the most part most of them printed good. I am just stating that if a novice did not calibrate their filament they might not get a good print. I think a brim would be the way to go on such a small area.

With respect, this is user error. I have printed several of these copters and have had no such issues. It can only be related to a dirty build plate which is out of my control. Clean your plate and try again and then please update your review to reflect that this is not the fault of the profile.

agreed, this shouldn't be a negative review. prints great if the bed is clean. dawn and water with a clean green side of a sponge is what we use.

Make sure you glue the pieces together or you will feel like an idiot like we did.
