FT-Cruzr Printer Friendly Plans

by Exhodus | April 18, 2013 | (6) Posted in Projects

Hi Everyone,

Guess I'm not the only who realized that the plans of the Cruzr are not too printer friendly, there is a bunch of parts that are duplicated its the byproduct of the plans being designed for the laser cutter i believe, but printing sheets of this size is not that cheap!

So I have created a set of compressed plans, it takes only two pages and both are smaller than the original sheets was! It still could be reduced further as I added the parts that need to be mirrored for the ease of tracing them onto the foam. Some parts need to be cut out multiple times, but that souldnt be a problem, and the wheels are missing completely, again a set of calipers can easily remedy that, and it will be more precise than if you try to trace the circles anyway!

 

Note to the Flitetest guys:

Nice work once again, I cant wait to build and fly this baby! :)

I hope you don't take it the wrong way that I removed all the adornment except the flitetest logo!

One more thing, the turtledeck plans are missing from the original plans!

 

The plans:

Body and other parts

Wings

 

Greetings from Hungary,

It's non-standard I just took the original plans, removed all the things that I did not need than fitted the remaining stuff as closely as possible. (One thing is for sure, its smaller than A0 :) )
Although, if you download the pdf files, the acrobat reader will tell you it's actual size when you drag the cursor to the bottom left corner!
