Print instructions
Category: Vehicles Print Settings
Printer: Rebel II
Rafts: No
Supports: No
Notes:
You need extra weight on the nose to make the model stable, so for the X-43A use enough infill.
I recommend to cut X-43A in half, print it in two pieces and bond.
Look into the Open Rocket design sheet for the stability calculations.
Not suitable for beginners.
