This is a 3D printed fuselage for RC plane. Wings come from SkySurfer 1400mm wingspan, but you can mount your own wings. I attach SolidWorks file, so you can adjust project to your wings.
Original SkySurfer is great motor glider but I did not like idea of pushing prop behind wings (I'm not FPV pilot). Moreover I wanted some higher stability and rigidity than EPP foam fuselage. So I created this model. And I'm happy with it, IMO it performs better than original.
You can see how it flies here:

The nose was printed with TPU filament in order to ensure shock absorbance due to plane crash the ground. However geometry still provides enough stiffness to hold the motor inside. Prop is folding so it won't generate additional drag during gliding and also it won't collide with ground during landing. The fuselage was printed with Nylon PA 12. Great material ensuring stiffness, lightness and great layer adhesion. On the back I mounted carbon fiber square hol
