Question about printing times
Update 10.02.2023: I remixed the rotor with the toroidal design :) Feel free to test ist out! https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5846249 Update 23.02.2023: NEW PULLING RODS!

Hello all. I am very new to this but it is all very cool to me. I ran into a problem and I am not sure how to troubleshoot it. I downloaded a simple pull string helicopter off thingiverse. After running through the slicer software, the estimated build time is 131 hours. Relative to it’s size this seems insane. If I “run the simulated build”, there are long holds on one of the interior walls. I am hesitant to just “try it” and see if the pauses are a software thing that does not translate to the hardware. I am not sure how to break it down from here. Any advice?

Something else to check is your infill percentage. Make sure you don’t have it at 100% (unless you absolutely need to build something completely solid). Another thing to check is your print speed. Too low and it will take a decade to print something simple. Too fast and it cause your print to fail. At this point we will all be throwing spaghetti against the wall. Can you share a screenshot of your settings?
