    It must be really stable to use as FPV. Where is the camera mounted right in the nose?
    Thanks for posting JBourdon

    a quick update

    I have to do piece by piece, as the phlatprinter script has so many problems. that's why I made the nose cone size error.

    i changed the design from low wing to mid wing.

    I there a good g-code editor I can move around several g-code files and reattach them together and move them to make the most of a faom board? Attached files [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Looking good JBourdon!

    Once you gave them as a group you should be able to move them around with the PhlatScripT anyway you like.
    If you want to let me know how you want them I will position them for you.
    What other types of problems are you having with the script so that I can add it to the sandbox for fixing

    You got a few things I see.
    One is you have components instead of groups.
    You need to explode everything and then make groups not components for your cutting order.
    Also it is best to have all the faces in the right orientation blue up not white. This will make your bit cut in the right direction around the part.
    I think you have a bit more wrong with it than just that like why some of your lines are white and some are black???
    I would really suggest watching Marks videos on how to use the script, the video shows step by step on how to properly do things.

    Components are fine for your mocked up model. But the parts layed out to be cut get grouped. I should of stated that in the previous post.

    Ok, by exploding, and thus removing components, and recreating tool paths, I was able to gcode it mostly ok.
    now, i still have problems with tabs. i don't think i understand the tool very well.

    Make sure you put the tabs on before you re group the parts. If your trying to put the tabs on after you already grouped everything they will not work.

    Did you watch the video on how to use the script?

    ok, it is the problem, tabs after groups.
    I watched the video a long time ago, and forgot most of it.
