ADAPTATION FOR 3D PRINTING
Eagle Transporter for 3D printing is an active assembly model and its moderation and adaptation for different types of 3D printers took the Gambody team 45 hours in total.
For you to receive the cleanest 3D printing result possible and minimize the amount of filament needed for generated support, the Eagle Transporter was divided into convenient assembly parts. All assembly parts in the FFF/FDM 1.0 version are provided in STL files in recommended positions that were worked out in order to ensure the smoothness of the details’ surfaces after printing and that the 3D printing beginners won't face difficulties when placing the parts on a build plate. After downloading any model's file you will also receive "Assembly Manual" for FFF/FDM 1.0 and DLP/SLA 1.0 versions in PDF format. We highly recommend that you get acquainted with the “Assembly video” and "Assembly Manual" before getting down to the Eagle Transporter model.
The model is saved in STL files, a format supported by most 3D printers. All STL files for 3D printing have been checked in Netfabb and no errors were shown.The model’s scale was calculated from the approximate length of the Eagle Transporter - 26 000 mm. The 3D printing model’s chosen scales are 1/32 for the FFF/FDM version and 1/64 for the DLP/SLA version.

Here’s a great example from Mark Bendall, who printed the Eagle Transporter on their Elegoo Saturn and shared it in our Facebook community:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/183216945475583/posts/1618108635319733
Feel free to join the community as well and share your progress—we’d be happy to have you on board!
Pro tip: if you find some parts from the resin (DLP/SLA) version easier to print or assemble, you can try scaling them up to 200% and matching them with the FFF/FDM files. You might find that cutting method more convenient! Just be sure the scaled-up parts will still fit your printer’s build volume.
And of course, feel free to reach out to us anytime at support@gambody.com if you have questions or need assistance with your project.

1) Come avete stampato tutte le finestre? In ABS trasparente? Io non ci sono riuscito, credo le autoprodurrò con del plexiglass.
2) Che ne dite di aggiungere un paio di piloti?
Regarding the window parts in the Eagle Transporter 3D Model, they do play an important visual role, and there are a few good approaches you can choose from. You can print and post-process the windows using transparent PETG, clear resin, or another clear material you’re comfortable working with. That said, to be completely honest, FFF/FDM printing cannot achieve true optical clarity in the same way resin printing can. Even with careful tuning and post-processing, the result is usually translucent rather than fully clear.
Because of this, many experienced makers choose an alternative solution: cutting the windows from clear PVC or plexiglass sheets. This method often gives the most realistic result and is a very popular choice for this model.
For more detailed tips and step-by-step techniques on working with clear parts, you may find this article helpful:
https://www.gambody.com/blog/tips-for-making-clear-3d-prints-in-transparent-filament-and-resin/
As for adding pilots, that’s a great idea and something many hobbyists like to do for extra realism. There is a compatible pilot available in the Eagle Transporter Add-On Kit, which you can find here: https://www.gambody.com/premium/moon-base-space-1999

In many cases, this type of issue is related to material behavior or printer calibration rather than the model geometry itself. FDM prints can be sensitive to factors such as extrusion calibration, wall thickness, flow rate, and material shrinkage, all of which may affect how precisely parts fit together.
To help us look into this more accurately, could you please let us know:
- Which printer model and material you’re using
- Whether your printer is properly calibrated; we recommend running a calibration test print, such as these calibration cubes: https://www.gambody.com/premium/calibration-elements-3d-printer
- Whether the model was scaled, and if so, whether the same scale factor was applied consistently to all parts
- Which specific parts are not fitting as expected
Photos of the issue would also be very helpful, if possible.
We’d also like to note that version 1.1 of the model, which includes an updated cockpit, is available.
Once we have a bit more detail, we’ll be happy to guide you on possible adjustments or check whether any refinements are needed. We’re here to help you achieve the best possible result with your build.

You can add custom G-code here for the start and end of the print. However, be careful - this is for advanced users only!
You have to calibrate your printer using Ge retraction test models
Retraction Length: For direct-drive setups use 0.5 mm to 2.5 mm; for Bowden extruders use 5 to 7 mm
This is how fast the filament is pulled back—40-60 mm/s for direct drive and 30-50 mm/s for Bowden setups.
You have to calibrate this parameter: Reduce it until the printer starts to hit the parts with the nozzle during printing, then increase it by 0.2.
For better quality use 0.12 mm layer height, for fast printing use 0.2 mm layer height. For pins and the Ge connectors, use 0.2 layer height.
120-150% of your Layer Height
To increase the strength of the print parts, use wall line count: 3
For pins and connectors use 50% Infill
These parameters are for standard PLA plastic. If you are using a different type of plastic, check the printing temperature recommended by the manufacturer. Also, read the description on your filament spool. For fast printers, add +30 °C to the current parameters.
The parameters in this tab vary greatly, it all depends on the quality of your printer. For example, if you have a classic Ender3, stick to the minimum parameters, but if you have a newer printer, for example Anycubic cobra 3 v3, you can select the maximum recommended values
