ABOUT THIS 3D MODEL

Gerry Anderson is famous for his futuristic television programmes, in the 1960s and 1970s he filmed his well-known series including Thunderbirds, Space: 1999, UFO, Supercar, Fireball XL5, Stingray, Joe 90. Thunderbirds were especially popular, these series featured a big variety of futuristic air, land and sea vehicles and machines. The most advanced machines, “Thunderbirds”, belonged to the International Rescue organisation and were used during their rescues. Thunderbird 2,  a heavy-duty transporter aircraft, could carry rescue equipment to the danger zone in one of 6 pods; this super-fast VTOL aircraft was used in most earth-based rescue missions. 

Thunderbird 2 inspired our contributing 3D artist to create this amazing model for 3D printing. The transporter has several display options, it can be mounted on a platform or hydraulic legs, the hangar is detachable and can be placed under the transporter or separately. Hangar serves as a base for Thunderbird 4 submarine, which is included in the files and makes this outstanding model even more authentic! You can choose between the clear and marked hull, there are tunnels for LEDs to illuminate bow and tail sections. We know you were waiting for it so please welcome the most iconic Thunderbirds machines of all!

ADAPTATION FOR 3D PRINTING

Thunderbird 2 for 3D printing is an active assembly model and its moderation and adaptation for different types of 3D printers took the Gambody team 49 hours in total.

For you to receive the cleanest 3D printing result possible, minimize the amount of filament needed for generated support, and make use of the active elements designed by Gambody Engineers, the 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. When 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 Thunderbird 2 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 length of the Thunderbird 2 which is 76000 mm. The 3D printing model’s chosen scales are 1:128 for the FFF/FDM version and 1:256 for the DLP/SLA version.
