Introduction: 3D Printed Glider
I created a 3D printed one piece glider using Fusion 360. All you have to do is throw it like a dart or like a paper airplane. It is easy to design and allows your creativity to shine. I attend Ridgecrest Intermediate School.
Supplies
Computer
Fusion 360
3D Printer
Imagination or a Guiding picture
Step 1: Download and Print
- Print with desired infill.
- Hold it between the wing and the tail and throw it!
Step 2: Experiement
Mess around with the glider.
- Bend the wings up or down.
- Use different infills.
- Go back to Fusion 360 and make it lighter.
- Make it heavier.
Step 3: Ending
I am a 7th grader attending Ridgcrest Intermediate and I created this as a fun and quick way to make a a flying object. For the 3D printer step, if you do not have any 3D printers check in with your local school. I did with mine and my school was more than happy to help.
