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?

When I switch to 0.2mm the time goes to 83 hours, so I assume there is still some error. What slicer do you use?
Don’t use Creality Slicer, it’s just an outdated renamed version of Cura. Download the most recent version of Cura here and your problems will most likely go away. https://ultimaker.com/software/ultimaker-cura/
