Alternative printed glider nose cones for the Hobbyking Durafly EFX Racer, STL's created by my friend Leonard Hall (of 3D printed quadcopter fame). Two noses to choose from.
Nose type 1 is standard length with the air scoop blanked off.
Nose type 2 is stretched and smoothed out (air scoop is smoothed out). The photo is of Nose type 2, which is my choice for the slope.
It has been lightly sanded after printing, and been brushed with Acetone and left under a glass jar on a saucer for 45 minutes to gloss over. It was supported from inside by a wire post while under the jar.Printed in ABS.
I set the heated bed up to 105C and ran the filament quite hot too to avoid cracking.
To compensate for ABS shrinkage up-scaling by 1% might be a good thing. I printed at normal scale and found the fit tight but OK after a light sand inside the mouth.
