Guys, I've made more photos. Can you decipher any more info out of those? I am an absolute zero in 3D printing related stuff. Can it really be something other than TPU? Or, perhaps, it was printed using wrong technique? I asked to print from TPU with 100% infill. The cost was around 40eur. Which is rather high, but I was expecting the wing to last for a long time.
I am no extreme basher. New to the RC. The wing survived for maybe 30 packs or so. The last few bashes were rough, as I tried to learn jumping. Yes, the car was crashing and landing badly from time to time. On grass. Not at extreme speeds for sure. Height maybe 1m max or so, as I am just learning. The rest of the parts are fine (except for the plastic pivot balls, they are an absolute joke, lol).
Could temperature affect the wing rigidity? We are in a +4... +10C (39.2-50F) area these days.
Thank you!
