I will show you every line in Cura for all my LW-PLA settings. To print PLA just change the temp to 215c and 100% Flow rates. I will also show the difference between ColorFabb LW-PLA and eSun eLW-PLA.
Thank you so much for watching!

Great to know eSun do it now. Also to note that Esun have bought out their ST-PLA (Super Strong) Same weight as pla but it has properties that feel more like an HDPE plastic bottle. The specs show as inferior to pla EXCEPT that the sheer strength, Layer adhesion and mailability are more than double that of regular pla. This should be a game changer for rc aircraft where increased strength is nessesary.

This was a great tutorial! I just started using the active foaming instead of pre-foamed. It got me really close to where I needed to be for my Neptune 4 Plus. I have been an avid RC aircraft guy for roughly 25 years now and I am having fun printing out, designing, and modifying planes.

Great video Troy. It is tough for noobs to get it right without help in the beginning. A note to inexperienced 3d printer users, not all filaments are made the same. I bought some Inland LW-PLA that gave beautiful models but the walls were .34mm thick, quite tough but very flimsy. Finely got the E-Sun LW-PLA and - bam - great parts right off. .51mm thick and weight was right on spec. I got a CR 10 V3 with the glass bed. Found that gluestick works great if you put a bit on and use a little rubbing alcohol and paper towel to smear it all over the bed real thin. Locks those parts down really well and a little bump and they pop off without damage every time. No more prying and digging. Hope you enjoy the coffee I sent last week.

Thanks again for posting this. I have a model I bought years ago from 3DLabs, the Swift S1. It's a mare to print, especially F_2.STL, as you need Cura 4.8 and 'filter tiny gaps' for the PLA parts due to the way the mesh has been rendered. Fast forwad 4 years and now we have Eclipson and 3DLabs knocking out some beautiful designs.

Thanks for the comparison tests, it is good to see that more options are becoming available and this will make LW-PLA more affordable. A request if I may, would you be able to do a short video on paints in the near future? I think an explanation on paints and the pros and cons associated to weights and flight is something most of your viewers would be interested in. When I watch your videos as mentioned before I get very inspired and find my creative juices flowing with ideas of what I can do and sometimes the ideas get too carried away....... keep up the good content that keeps us dreaming and building!

The slicer settings seem to be the most challenging so thanks for posting this video. You did mention that the only change for Eclipson planes is to leave Surface mode as Normal but after comparing the settings line by line with those recommend by Eclipson's A-LW profile (imported into Cura from their g-code files) I see quite a few differences and wasn't sure which one to use. I guess I could try both.

Hi Troy. Thanks for all your wonderful instructional videos. I have found one problem worth noting. I am using an Ender 7. I have been working with the Eclipson Pitts (you demonstrated the build in a different video) and found that in spite of all the settings you have shown in this video, there is a G-code command M106 (sometimes more than one) in the G-code created by slicing the Epsilon STL files. These M106 codes are also in the G-codes Epsilon offers in their download too. Regardless, unless I edit out those M106 codes before printing, the nozzle temp drops precipitously to the point where the printing stops due to a heating error. That said, as long as I edit out those M106 codes from the sliced file using your slicer setup, the printing results are excellent.

Troy, another great video. I have learned more from you about Cura & 3D printing than from any other source. Thank you. One of the things I'd like to see you do is setting up Cura. What fields need to be made visible in Setting Visibility? I've also noticed that at times you show the extruder and the nozzle path. How is this done? And I've seen animation controls along the bottom of your screen is some of your videos. I have only a vertical scroll bar along the right edge of the screen for going to different layers. Is the animation controls & nozzle visibility something that needs to be turned on somewhere in Preferences? A plug in? Thanks.

Could you do strength testing with different LW-PLA filaments? For normal 3D printing you can usually improve the strength a bit by increasing the temperature but it seems that LW-PLA is really finicky with the temperature so that cheat cannot probably be used here.

I am curious what you are doing with the different Eclipson settings. I assume these work with the A-LW. Do you leave most of this the same for the C-LW as well; like the flow, speed, etc? What do you change for this setting?

I've been using your settings in a couple of your vids to get started on an Eclipson Model S. while your print settings are nearly perfect, my prints come out with highly visible seams where the print head transitions from printing internal structure to printing the thinwall "skin". On Eclipson's models, thats mainly on the bottom of the wings. Could you point me to the settings that might help with this?? Thanks again

I used your LW-PLA settings and of all the setting I've tried they produce the best results. I'm getting the thinnest walls. I still have one problem I have not solved and that is I still get pimples all over the print. In one airframe section I printed it has tubes for graphite rod support and the tubes have pimples in it so I can't insert a graphite rod. Any ideas on what I could try to eliminate these pimples? The stringy issues I had are gone! BTW When I print with regular PLA and the standard CURA profile I get good quality prints with out pimples or stringing.

I use the prusalicer but the settings are almost the same. in vase mode there is almost no cruising speed. and also no stringing. but in some prints you need closed top and bottom. On the wing where the ailerons are, the wing edge is always open, which is bad. I print that in normal mode, all settings the same but without vase mode, just 1 perimeter.

Everything works with the settings on mine except it keeps making a squiggly line down one side. It does not do this on the other side. Do you know why it is doing this? I am printing with an Ender 3 Max.

I got the Overture lightweight pla and tried several times but your settings but then I realized this lightweight pla is pre- foamed. So I keep pre foamed set to 100% flow rate?

What release Cura are these settings for? I am using 5.3.1, the settings in your video seem to work fine. Thnx

I see that you have an SWX1. I have the same printer and also a FLSUN Q5. Hopefully, I can complete my FLSUN QQ-S Pro(Hybrid) before the end of June. I have designed and 3d printed parts for the QQ-S Pro. What profile are you using on the X1? I have S3D and Cura 4.13.1. None of the beta 5 versions will load and I have not found out why yet. I have a friend who is an RC flyer and a builder, and we are looking at collaborating on one of these builds. He is very interested in the 3d build, but does not own a printer and has never designed parts for one. His background is in aviation since he flew cargo planes during the Vietnam conflict. I have to adjust my budget to get the LW-PLA to calibrate both printers. This filament is not cheap.

Great video again.but it's funny most people don't talk about how this pla shatters if u make any mistake on landing.after all the hard work n time putting the planes together then one second mistake it's over.
