Some problems about overhanging and accuracy of ultimaker 2

· Some problems about overhanging and accuracy of ultimaker 2
This is an interesting model! Does the model have that pattern in it? All those triangular holes?
This is a difficult pattern to print in the air. I suggest you change the cad model a bit such that you print only the horizontal lines from left to right on a few layers (in other words make those "beams" thicker towards the center of the part by .5mm). This will provide a support structure to print the final patter on top of.
