The Savage went into production between 1997 and 1998 in Italy. The idea was to develop an aircraft with good handling and STOL properties, in the classic, proven design and traditional construction, which is economical and easy to build but also to repair.

Inspired by one of the 20th century aviation legends

- the Piper Cub - several prototypes were built by SAVAGE designers, aeronautical engineers Bonaldo, Franchini and Vizzini (the latter had worked for Aeritalia and was a long time before joining Aermacchi at Boeing in Seattle) which should form the basis for the ﬁ nal Savage in the ULM category.

Designed with the most advanced CAD design and simulation software (CATIA, Solidworks and NASTRAN), the Savage has undergone an intensive validation process for on-board static testing and testing to meet the most stringent industry standards for lightweight aircraft design and manufacturing.

Shortly after its conception and prior to its ofﬁ cial launch, the Savage won ﬁ rst prize in 1999 as the Best Plan-Built Ultralight at the Experimental Aircraft Association meeting in Carpi, Italy. In 1999, the production of the Savage was relocated to the Czech

Republic and since then, the aircraft manufacturer Zlin Aviation S.r.o. carried out. The highest quality aviation materials from the USA, Italy and France are processed by the most competent staff.

By May 2014, more than 280 Savages had been delivered to various countries worldwide. Zlin Aviation is always looking for new markets and dealers. Do not hesitate to contact Zlin if you think you want to become part of the dealer network.

You may wonder why this 3D model is suitable exclusively for CURA right?

The most important thing about small RC model airplanes is always the ratio of size to weight. The lighter a model is, the better its ﬂight characteristics and also the ﬂight time is signiﬁcantly increased.

With our unique design process, we manage to make Weights relevant items in a true 1-wall prin-

ting process for the outer skin but also for the ﬁlling offer. So we save weight while maintaining the

necessary stability.

Here we show you how to get started from a standard CURA proﬁle Make settings. For this model we only need 4, easy to create proﬁles.

It is absolutely necessary to observe the information provided by PLANEPRINT.com in order: to slice the component correctly. However, it may make sense to perfect your 3D printing by additionally performing several hiring activities depending on your printer and the ﬁlament used.

In order to print airfoils of the lowest possible weight with high stability, it is necessary to print with only one wall line (Nozzle 0.4 mm). Decisive here is the adhesion between the layers! To achieve this, you must print at a much higher temperature than normal. As a guideline, 230 ° C is a good starting point. The parts-cooling fan should be set to 0% or a maximum of 20%. Since not every printer works the same, it may be necessary to make small adjustments to these settings.

The development of a complex, airworthy RC ﬂight model to express on any standard 3D printer is a very complex and extensive process. Therefore, we appeal to your fairness not to forward the STL data you have acquired to third parties. Our STL ﬁles are provided with indelible copyright watermarks that can be veriﬁed at any time.

Thank you for your understanding and have fun with your PLANEPRINT MODEL!

Turn on the transmitter and connect the battery. When checking the control directions, look at the aircraft from behind.

1. Move the aileron lever to the left. The right aileron should move down and the left aileron should move up so that the aircraft tilts to the left.

2. Move the aileron lever to the right. The right aileron should move up and the left aileron down so that the aircraft is tilting to the right.

3. Pull back the elevator lever. The elevators should move up, causing the aircraft to rise.

4. Push the elevator lever forward. The elevator should move down so that the aircraft sinks.

5. Move the rudder lever to the left. The rudder should move to the left.

NOT FOR CHILDREN UNDER 14 YEARS. THIS IS NOT A TOY!

By using the download data, an RC model airplane, called „model“ for short, can be manufactured using a 3D printer. As a user of this model, only you are responsible for safe operation that does not endanger you or others, or that does not damage the model or property of others.

PLANEPRINT.com assumes no responsibility for damage to persons and property caused by pressure, transport or use of the product. Filaments, printing supplies, hardware or consumables that can not be used after faulty 3D printing will not be replaced by PLANEPRINT.com in any way.

When operating, always keep a safe distance from your model in all directions to avoid collisions and injuries.

This model is controlled by a radio signal. Radio signals can be disturbed from outside without being able to inﬂuence it. Interference can lead to a temporary loss of control.

Always operate your model on open terrains, far from cars, trafﬁc and people.

Always follow the instructions and warnings for this product and any optional accessories (servos, receivers, motors, propellers, chargers, rechargeable batteries, etc.) carefully.

Avoid water contact with all components that are not specially designed and protected. Moisture damages the electronics.

Never take an item of the model or accessory in your mouth as this can lead to severe injuries or even death.

Never operate your model with low batteries in the transmitter or model.

Always keep the model in view and under control. Use only fully charged batteries.

Always keep the transmitter switched on when the model is switched on.

Always remove the battery before disassembling the model.

Keep moving parts clean and dry at all times.

Always allow the parts to cool before touching them.

Always remove the battery after use.

Make sure that the Failsafe is properly set before the ﬂight.

Keep all chemicals, small parts and electrical components out of the reach of children.

We develop our models to the best of our knowledge and belief.

We accept no liability for consequential damage and injuries

caused by improper use. Please be careful when handling motors,

batteries and propellers and only move your model with insurance

and in approved places!

Never operate the model with damaged wiring.

Never touch moving parts.
