This is my 3rd 3D Printed airplane, and this one is PlanePrint's Big Bobber! Printing thin wall is super difficult, and setting up your 3D printer for a new build can be especially challenging. I made this step-by-step video of the process of getting that perfect thin wall print. I include how-to and troubleshooting in this video, I cover most every problem you can run into with thin wall, so if you are having trouble with it - watch until end to see your solution!

*These are the settings I used for my JGMaker Magic 3D Printer with eSun PLA. These settings are not going to work with every printer, or every PLA. Printers have different length bodin tubes, and PLA’s have different melting points. These may not work exactly for you, but should give you a good base to start with if you have a similar size printer. Good luck!
