PETG filled with carbon fiber. Stiffer, with a matte finish and cleaner prints.
Nozzle 240-270 °CBed 65-80 °C
Which filament for…
Drone or RC vehicle frame
Crashes, vibration, and stiffness requirements.
Best pick
- You want a stiff frame that survives crashes.
- PETG-CF gives stiffness plus PETG’s weather resistance, and plain PETG is a tougher but more flexible alternative if you want it cheaper.
- Avoid anything brittle: silk and glow PLA shatter on impact.
Also works
The tougher everyday choice. More heat- and impact-tolerant than PLA, and decent outdoors in the shade.
Nozzle 230-250 °CBed 70-85 °C
PLA filled with chopped carbon fiber. Very stiff, matte, and low-warp, but brittle and hard on nozzles.
Nozzle 210-240 °CBed 50-65 °C
