ABOUT THIS 3D MODELThe retro-futuristic world of Dune imagined by Frank Herbert in 1965 proved to be a challenge to bring to the big screens! But through the vivid imagination of Denis Villeneuve, demanding practical effects and excellently executed CGI, this incredible fictional universe gifted us a myriad of refreshing sci-fi visuals that could not leave the 3D printing community indifferent.Meet another majestic vehicle capable of defeating a sandstorm of wilful Arrakis - Two-Seat Ornithopter for 3D printing. The little sibling of the dragonfly-inspired Ornithopter Dune 3D Printing Model operates on four swift articulated wings and allows you to observe the surrounding landscape through the panoramic cockpit glass. Immensely detailed and carefully crafted, it calls for you to become the next Chosen One!ADAPTATION FOR 3D PRINTINGTwo-Seat Ornithopter for 3D printing is an active assembly model and its moderation and adaptation for different types of 3D printers took Gambody team 40 hours in total. For you to receive the cleanest 3D printing result possible and to minimize the amount of filament needed for generated support, the dragonfly vehicle was divided into many assembly parts that are provided as separate STL files. For you to display the model in any desired pose and interact with it, our engineers introduced the special articulation mechanism into the Ornithopter's wings that allows their multidirectional movement. All assembly parts are provided in STL files of FFF/FDM version in recommended positions that were worked out in order to ensure the smoothness of the details’ surfaces after printing and that the 3D printing beginners won’t face difficulties when placing the parts on a build plate. When downloading any model’s file you will also receive “Assembly Manual” for FFF/FDM 1.0 and DLP/SLA 1.0 versions in PDF format. We highly recommend that you get acquainted with the “Assembly video” and “Assembly Manual” before getting down to the Two-Seat Ornithopter model.The model is saved in STL files, a format supported by most 3D printers. All STL files for 3D printing have been checked in Netfabb and no errors were shown.The model’s scale was calculated from the approximate length of the Two-Seat Ornithopter's body which is 14500 mm. The 3D printing model’s chosen scale is 1:64 for the FFF/FDM version and 1:128 for the DLP/SLA version.VERSIONS' SPECIFICATIONSFFF/FDM 1.0 version features:- Contains 49 parts;- A printed model stands 191 mm tall, 477 mm wide, 377 mm deep (platform + folded wings), 159 mm tall, 717 mm wide, 234 mm deep (extended landing gear + unfolded wings);- Elaborately detailed cockpit interior;- Adjustable grip connectors inside wings’ mounts allow multidirectional movement of all wings;- Two variants of landing gear - folded to display the aircraft in flight mode and unfolded to display model without the platform;- The platform is made in the style of the Ornithopter Dune 3D Printing Model's for you to display both models together;- Assembly of the FDM version requires additional “pins” that do not come in STL files but can be made out of short pieces of regular 1.75mm filament;- The cockpit windows come as separate assembly parts to be printed with transparent material, the front window can be 3D printed as one piece or in halves;- You can light up the interior of the Ornithopter;- All parts are divided in such a way that you will print them with the smallest number of support structures.DLP/SLA 1.0 version features:- Contains 35 parts;- A printed model stands 159 mm tall, 717 mm wide, 234 mm deep (platform + folded wings), 80 mm tall, 359 mm wide, 117 mm deep (extended landing gear + unfolded wings);- Elaborately detailed cockpit interior;- Adjustable grip connectors inside wings’ mounts allow multidirectional movement of all wings;- Two variants of landing gear - folded to display the aircraft in flight mode and unfolded to display model without the platform;- The platform is made in the style of the Ornithopter Dune 3D Printing Model's for you to display both models together;- The cockpit windows come to be printed with transparent material;- You can light up the interior of the Ornithopter;- All parts are divided in such a way to fit the build plates and to ensure that support structures are generated where needed.You can get the model of Two-Seat Ornithopter Dune for 3D Printing immediately after the purchase!

The parameters can vary depending on the peculiarities of your 3D printer, the material you use and especially the particular assembly part at hand. Each part that any model comprises often needs preliminary review and you are free to tweak the settings the way you find suitable.Note:- You can scale up the model (downscaling is not recommended!);- All connectors should be printed at 100% Infill;- For all parts of locks (“ge_lock” in “Source files”) you need to change "Brim" type to "Skirt" in Build Plate Adhesion section.QualityLayer Height: 0.12 mm (you can also set Layer Height at 0.16 or 0.2mm for 0.4mm nozzles)Initial Layer Height: 0.2 mm (carefully level the print bed and keep your Initial Layer Height the same as the main Layer Height)Line Width: 0.4 mmWall Line Width: 0.4 mmOuter Wall Line Width: 0.4 mmInner Wall(s) Line Width: 0.4 mmTop/Bottom Line Width: 0.4 mmInfill Line Width: 0.4 mmSkirt/Brim Line Width: 0.4 mmSupport Line Width: 0.4 mmInitial Layer Line Width: 100%Shell Wall Thickness: 0.8 mmWall Line Count: 2Outer Wall Wipe Distance: 0.3 mmTop Surface Skin Layers: 0Top/Bottom Thickness: 0.6 mmTop Thickness: 0.6 mmTop Layers: 5Bottom Thickness: 0.6 mmBottom Layers: 5Initial Bottom Layers: 5Top/Bottom Pattern: LinesBottom Pattern Initial Layer: LinesTop/Bottom Line Directions: [ ]Outer Wall Inset: 0 mmOptimize Wall Printing Order: CheckCompensate Wall Overlaps: CheckCompensate Inner Wall Overlaps: CheckMinimum Wall Flow: 0%Fill Gaps Between Walls: EverywhereFilter Out Tiny Gaps: CheckHorizontal Expansion: 0 mmInitial Layer Horizontal Expansion: 0 mmHole horizontal expansion: 0Z Seam Alignment: User SpecifiedZ Seam Position: BackZ Seam X: Average length of your printer’s plate (e.g.”150” if your plate is 300mm on the X-axis)Z Seam Y: A value higher than the length of your plate on the Y-axis (e.g. 700)Seam Corner Preference: Hide SeamExtra Skin Wall Count: 1Skin Overlap Percentage: 10%Skin Overlap 0.04 mmInfill Infill Density: 20% (for all smaller parts and for all parts of connectors use 100% Infill)Infill Pattern: TrianglesConnect Infill Lines: CheckInfill Line Directions: [ ]Infill X Offset: 0 mmInfill Y Offset: 0 mmInfill Line Multiplier: 1Extra Infill Wall Count: 0Infill Overlap Percentage: 10-20%Infill Overlap: 0.04 mmSkin Overlap Percentage: 5%Skin Overlap: 0.02 mmInfill Wipe Distance: 0 mmInfill Layer Thickness: 0.24 mmGradual Infill Steps: 0Infill Before Walls: CheckMinimum Infill Area: 0 mm2Skin Removal Width: 0.8 mmTop Skin Removal Width: 0.8 mmBottom Skin Removal Width: 0.8 mmSkin Expand Distance: 0.8Top Skin Expand Distance: 0.8Bottom Skin Expand Distance: 0.8Maximum Skin Angle for Expansion: 90˚Minimum Skin Width for Expansion: 0.0Skin Edge Support Thickness: 0Skin Edge Support Layers: 0Material Initial Layer Flow: 100%Printing Temperature: See your filament settingsInitial Printing Temperature: Your filament settingsFinal Printing Temperature: Your filament settingsBuild Plate Temperature: Your filament settingsBuild Plate Temperature Initial Layer: Your filament settings + 5°Flow: 100% (Important!

Test models were printed on Ultimaker 2, Creality Ender 3, Creality Cr-10S pro v2, Anycubic I3 Mega, Anycubic I3 MegaS, Anycubic Vyper with PLA and PetG filaments. Note:- You can upscale your 3D printing models. Downscaling is not recommended - it can make smaller parts of the model unprintable, distort the model’s level of detail and result in assembly issues. - All connectors should be printed at 100% Infill.- When printing Lock connectors, we recommend setting the “Brim width” parameter to 0 in the "Skirt and Brim" print settings. In that way, the Locks will be 3D printed with a Skirt only.
