ANYTHING that improves the looks of the jet is a bonus

Nice to see the non-scale F-4E type nozzles replaced. However, the printed parts are still not as scale as the rest of this magnificent model in that the Collar "sticks out" WAY TOO MUCH. Also, I assume the reason that the nozzle is closed so much is for model efficiency.

yes please! but for other planes, especially the A-10!

grest!

I will certainly be purchasing all of these neat goodies for the F-4!
How about a 3D printed RF-4 nose cone?
If parts were available to convert the presently available A-4E/F into an A-4M, I'd have to buy those parts, and another A-4 to put them on.
keep up the good work!

I think this is just a fantastic idea. Love being able to take a plane to the next level that this technology provides for. Way to raise the bar Motion and thank you for providing the files. I just got myself a 3D printer so I am starting to learn how to use it and am printing the first part I designed in Fusion 360. I look forward to printing these and many more parts for future releases. Pilots would be great additions, maybe gear doors for future releases that don't come with them. MER's, TER's, aircraft specific ordnance, the sky is the limit.

Very cool! Would love to see someone do a time lapse of some of these parts being created... :Cool:

Downloaded and ready to print!!!

I think it's a great idea. I really like the fact that you release the 3d files. Way to go.

The pilots and the cockpits are obvious requests for just about all planes. The 1960's birds should not have 1990's pilots. Why did they go to that ridiculous pull over visor anyway?. And don't get me started on the mittens.
Also vortex generators for the A-4 would be nice. And some 3d files for external tanks, ordnance, antennas, (hint scale helicopter antennas and WSPS, etc) are sorely needed.

I just preordered! Thanks Motion!

I've watched the video, AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!

Put the "modeler" back into RC Modeling! Adding another level of scale detail potential to your RC model aircraft, Motion RC now offers 3D Printed Upgrade Part ("3DPUP") Sets for select models from Freewing and FlightLine. Due for a Late April arrival, we implore pilots who are interested to get their pre-orders in before April 9th. These are new for Motion RC and Freewing so we want to make sure we have the right amount produced to make it worthwhile.

These 3DPUPs offer three distinct advantages:

1) Perfect Fit - Each 3DPUP set is drawn by the same designers who created the original mode
2) Gator-proof - Cockpit sets bring the additional advantage of curbing the unsightly "gatoring" that is common to black foam aircraft, which guarantees a perfect fit between the original foam aircraft and the 3D printed parts.
hat occurs when dark foam bubbles under heat and UV radiation.

3) High Def Detail - Instrument panels with details as sharp as 0.10mm, accurate ejection seats, and other assemblies feature details impossible to render in molded foam. High resolution, high accuracy.

Motion RC's exclusive 3DPUP sets are available in two formats:

1) Pre-Printed - Available for purchase on our website under the aircraft's "Upgrades" tab, each 3DPUP Set arrives to your door pre-printed, cleaned, trimmed, and ready for your paintjob. Modelers can further detail the parts to their desired level, then install the parts with standard foam glue. Basic modeling skills and materials are required.

2) Downloadable Printable .STL File

For modelers with access to a 3D Printer or who want to use a third party 3D printing service, we are also offering for a limited time the original .STL files for free download on our website, under the aircraft's "Support" tab. Modelers are responsible for preparing the file for their own printer's specifications. These downloadable files are ideal for modelers who enjoy tinkering with printer settings and materials. Please note, we only provide the .STL files themselves; we cannot provide tech support for your specific printer. By downloading the .STL files, you agree to not monetize the file in any way without Motion RC's express written consent.

Here at Motion RC, we always enjoy pushing the envelope to keep our customer family happy. 3D printing is a technology that continues to mature worldwide and find new applications in a variety of industries. Within the RC world, 3D printed parts, and even complete 3D printed airplanes from innovators have encouraged us at Motion RC to incorporate this technology for the first time into the foam electric market segment at the factory level. 3D Printed Upgrade Part ("3DPUP") sets are our first foray into this world, where we envision merging cosmetic detail and scale fidelity with ease of use and cost-effective access to a sometimes imposing technology. The real questions are:

* What do YOU think of 3D printing?

* Would you like to see more 3DPUP sets released by Motion RC for Freewing, Flightline, and other aircraft?

* What aircraft should we create 3DPUPs for next?

Let us know here. Share your thoughts, be heard, and weigh in. If we don't hear from you, we may cancel the idea, but if there's a show of support, 3DPUPs could eventually be made available for almost all our premier aircraft brands.
