I get asked all the time. What should my first 3d printed plane be, or what's the best "beginner" or "intermediate" trainer jet? For all the people interested in getting into the 3d printed plane hobby and i've always had to point them to the mini delta fighter. An easy to print jet but its crazy fast and rolls super fast. Well the bat jet will fly more like a powered glider. It is super easy to throw, and the control rates cant be too high because i designed the control surfaces to be the correct size on purpose. Thanks to Thomas Heuer for the collaboration on this Bat
