Q: What kind of glue is recommended or optional for working with 3D printed parts?
I am somewhat familiar with cyanoacrylate, but I suspect I will want to either get some slow drying cyanoacrylate to avoid stressing, or maybe even consider some alternatives.

I am thinking that I will probably use casting resin for a glue. Essentially this is a two part mix which should be similar to the material of the parts. I did it on my build of the Dargon Rapide as I wanted strength in the mid spine joint. I ended up using the same resin for the wing joints. Worked a treat and is so much stronger than superglue or epoxy.

the other possible alternative is to use the 3D uv printing resin set with a uv lamp but I am yet to try this method on a kit.

I was going to order from the second tranche, but really want a standard AJ-37 with two honking great R-04 missiles hanging off the wings, so I'll hold off.

I've ordered two JAs from the first run, with a view to converting one, but JETmads have indicated the AJ is a possibility, though not a firm one.

FYI - this was a couple of days ago. Seems it isn't dead yet (although they could learn a lot from JetMads about communicating with their customers).
