Setting upThe one-piece elevons (315.6 mm), and any LW-PLA part that only fits the Core One+ diagonally. The one-piece wing halves (496 mm) and the one-piece fuselage do not fit it; they stay on the 600 mm printer.

Ryan’s third printer: the original Kobra Max (2022), 400 x 400 x 450 mm (Ryan, 2026-10-03; it was first recorded as a 2 Max or 3 Max). PrusaSlicer 2.9.6 has no profile for it, so slicing/config/printer-kobra-max.ini is the Core One HF0.4 preset with the printer keys replaced: the 400 x 400 bed, 450 mm of Z, plain G-code, Marlin start and end G-code that loads the stored LeviQ mesh (M420 S1), and machine limits of 180 mm/s and 1000 mm/s². kobra-max-print.ini slows the print profile for a bed-slinger; the LW-PLA override’s 35 mm/s still applies on top. kobra-max-lw.ini replaces the Prusa-only pressure-advance G-code with M900 K0.

The extruder is a Bowden, so retraction is 6 mm at 25 mm/s: a starting value, ESTIMATE. Print a retraction tower before the first real part, and run LeviQ from the screen first. Stock Anycubic firmware may cap the extruder’s feed rate at 25 mm/s; M503 shows the limit. Tall parts ride on the moving bed, so the elevons stand on their root edges with a 12 mm brim.
