3D print the parts
If your design includes printed parts (canopy, mounts, soft-mounts, sometimes the frame), DRONA gives you a ready-to-slice plate with per-part settings.
What you get
- A print plate with the parts arranged and packed.
- Recommended slicer settings per part (perimeters, solid layers, infill, seam position, brim, orientation).
- A material recommendation for your use case, with the trade-offs spelled out (for example a tougher blend for a freestyle frame that will crash a lot).
- A readiness check that tells you whether the parts fit your printer bed and pack cleanly before you slice.
How to print
- Export the parts as STL or 3MF (3MF carries the per-part settings). See Exports & files.
- Load them in your slicer and apply the recommended settings, or import the 3MF to get them automatically.
- Use the recommended material and orientation, orientation matters a lot for strength on load-bearing parts like arms.
- Slice and print.
Orientation is not cosmetic. A printed arm or mount is much stronger along the print layers than across them, so follow the orientation hint, especially for parts that take crash loads.
