The ERCO Ercoupe is a general aviation aircraft from a time when flying was immensely popular. Advertised as “the world’s safest plane”, the Ercoupe had great visibility, resistance to spins, and gentle handling & control characteristics intended to make it easy for almost anyone to fly. Today – more than 70 years after its first flight – the Ercoupe is still unique and interesting enough to maintain a devoted following. And to become a 3D printed R/C model!
This product is a digital download which includes:
- STL 3D model files
- Pre-configured .3mf files for OrcaSlicer (supports many printers)
- Build guide & suggested hardware list
Lofted Aero models are proudly released with OrcaSlicer! Rather than including .gcode files, all relevant slicing settings are built into the .3mf files. Select your printer model as necessary - but there's often no need to edit slicing settings otherwise.
