The Dragonfly drone from the video game Ice Caves of Europa.
The model has been sliced into parts for FDM printing and has a hollow head so LED lights can be fitted.
Printer Brand:
Wanhao
Printer:
Rafts:
No
Supports:
No
Resolution:
0.2mm
Infill:
15%
Notes:
Rotate the parts so that the flat edge lays on the print bed. Supports are needed for the two head parts but otherwise no supports are required.
I've also included the complete model pre-sliced for anyone who wants to print a small version on a resin printer.
After printing the parts should be glued together with a 2-part epoxy resin. They can then be primed and sanded for a smooth finish. If you want to include LED lights in the head then print it in white PLA and leave the eyes unpainted. I used a pair of 3-Volt white LEDs. There's room in the stand for a 2xAA battery pack.
