BlackCrow Car Trailer 1:8 scale

BlackCrow RC 1:8 scale car tandem axle trailer hauler.

Has functional tongue jack, folding ramps and toolbox. The axles articulate and conform to uneven ground. 

This model was designed and redesigned to make printing and assembly easy

Supports:

No supports needed EVER!  Supports are built into the Model. (Because of the built in supports and fine detailed areas a 0.4 nozzle or Adaptive slicer must be used) 

Printer Settings:

0.4 nozzle 

.2 layer Hight (no bigger) 

Infill Axles and wheels 50-80% Everything else 20%

Filament:

Models are designed around the use of a strong PLA. For best results use Prusa PLA, Inland Plus, CC3D Max, ( Hatchbox PLA does not test well with my models) 

Warping - Prusa printers with PLA plus - adjust bed temp to 65 degrees. 

                  Creality printers with PLA plus - adjust bed to 60 - 65 degrees.

Glue:

This model does not use glue. Glue can be used if needed to hold in license plate, brake lights and other fine detail work. Screws are used to hold model together. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
