4:02 You can run a standard cheap printer for 8 days nonstop. But, you need to be sure the PSU and ECU are fed room temp air to their cooling fans, and that the stock cooling is working well. The center section of my jet is a 3.5 day print (at least gen 1 was), and my Ender 5+ has thousands of hours. Ive broken 1 bearing on the Y axis which cost $0.50 to replace, no biggie
Looking at your layer lines, I'd say you printed many of the parts in the wrong orientation. You must have used lots of support, which might explain your long print times. None of the parts need support if printed in the correct orientation. Brave choice for a first 3D printed plane with no FC!
Really cool to watch this! Great job guys
