    Someone wrote to me that his Vulcan had a slightly different size rear end than the one I created the nozzles for, so I designed a slightly bigger one to fit his plane. It's #5b in the set on Thingiverse, in case anyone else has the same problem.

    Nozzles for the Freewing 70mm Vulcan sport jet.Set printing parameters as needed for weight distribution.Nozzles designated "b" are 1mm larger in diameter to better fit some fuselages.


    (I don't have a Vulcan of my own so I made these according to dimensions people sent me).

    Very good. I'll probably get one for myself when I free up some room in my basement (42 models in there right now, soon to be 43 when the F-14 arrives later today).

    I look upon spin and win as entertainment, it brightens up the day, its nice if you win but I always assume I won`t, a bit like the lottery really but with better odds

    Looking really good!

    I don't even have a Vulcan. I just like designing stuff.

    (Maybe if they came out with an ARF+ I'd get one)

    Over on RCG people are saying that they are receiving the 4S version unpainted and no decals. Be warned.

    Now they say the 4s has been pulled from the site…

    Why do 4 when there’s a 6?

    Already printed one of yours. Great work as always. Just waiting to finish painting before install

    It will look even better with a decent nozzle on the back end (which looks unfinished the way it comes).
