Certainly not advisable to make frames with PLA. It is brittle and prone to cracking. ABS is a better option for the same budget. However, Nylon and PETG are the best 3d printing materials for quadcopter parts. You can go through our list of materials on www.fabforma.com. We have a wide range of materials for various applications. If you want your custom parts designed & prototyped quickly, please feel free to call us / email us anytime. Happy to help. Regards, Fabforma Team www.fabforma.com Title: Re: 3-D printing. Post by: Power_user_EX on June 26, 2017, 01:22:23 AM Here is a video of 2nd Version of our 3DPrinter :
