DESCRIPTION

1/900th scale SBD Dauntless Dive Bomber model. Certain elements not to scale.

The SBD Dauntless was a naval aircraft primarily carrier-borne. It served scouting and dive bombing roles throughout its career. It had great range, and bomb capacity. The SBD Dauntless is immortalized in history by being the aircraft that brought the Japanese Navy to its knees by destroying four aircraft carriers in the battle of Midway.

This model is designed and tested at 1/900th scale, but up-scaling and down-scaling are possible. Since the model is optimized for 1/900th scale, it is not ideal to print larger versions due to a lack of detail. The model has been enlarged along the z axis to allow for better printing and accentuation of detail. The model has also been given thicker elements for strength. The wingspan and overall length are to scale.

Available are both individual and squadron files. You can find the stand at https://www.cgtrader.com/free-3d-print-models/miniatures/vehicles/stand-for-miniature-aircraft.

This is part of my collection of WWII aircaft, keep an eye out for more to come. If you have a specific request, message me and I'll bump it up my list.

Update 24 Oct 19: Discarded old version completely and replaced with more accurate representation. Added version with propellors.

Tested with PLA at .1mm layer height with .4mm nozzle.
