Small spoiler, different print strategy
A 1/32-scale RC spoiler became an experiment in orientation, splitting the part, and avoiding supports.
Documented April 2021Build story
A tiny object changes the problem
The April 2021 post describes this as my smallest, most complex print at the time: a 1/32-scale RC-car spoiler, printed with a 0.2 mm nozzle and 0.12 mm layers.
Change the setup, not just the settings
It took several attempts to settle on an orientation. My preferred result at the time was a halved version printed without supports. The original photograph preserves the small pieces and trial layouts.
The next check belonged to the user
The caption ends by waiting for user feedback. That is where this project record stops; it does not supply a later fit or performance result.
Credits & project notes
Print preparation and fabrication: Michael Pytlowany. The source does not establish authorship of the original spoiler model.
No later user result or aerodynamic performance is claimed.
