Most of us have printed a few benchies to test our 3D printers. The intrepid little boat has a variety of features that tax different parts of the printing process. However, the guys at [FliteTest] had a different idea. They set out in a competition to build a giant flying benchie. They aren’t quite done, but they did make some interesting progress, as you can see in the video below.
In all fairness, the benchies are not, themselves, 3D printed. Foamboard, however, is a bit more practical. Inevitably, you can’t help but think of a flying boat when you see the results.
