Build Guide

The ultimate printer I can recommend is the Bamboo Labs X1 carbon with AMS if you have deep pockets. ($1200). It's a massive leap forward in 3D printing, with excellent quality and impressive speeds. Its pretty much press print and go as the software and hardware do the calibration before each print. This printer will not manage the larger parts and you are going to need the CREALITY CR10 v3, which is my second choice of printer.

This is the design most people want. Fully 3d printed with motorised Trim Wheels, Throttle levers, speed brake, parking brake and Trim indicators.

This design requires a print size of 300mm x 300mm
