Next-Level RC Printing:
How to unlock LW-ASA for RC Aircraft
Joel Vlashof’s Insights

In the world of 3D-printed RC aircraft, lightweight materials are essential. At colorFabb, we continuously innovate to give makers the tools they need to explore new possibilities. More and more designers are discovering that LW-ASA can be a powerful upgrade for projects that demand:

➔  Enhanced UV resistance
➔  Heat stability
➔  Outdoor durability

RC model designer Joel Vlashof has spent the past months diving deep into LW-ASA

Developing a reliable set of settings and workflows that allow LW-ASA to deliver impressively consistent results. Because this filament requires more from the printer and environment - such as an enclosed build chamber and specific temperatures - his findings are particularly valuable for anyone interested in working with LW-ASA. In this User Story, Joel shares his insights, settings, and practical tips so you can discover how to get the most out of LW-ASA for your own RC
