printing Spitfire slight problem?
I printed the new Spitfire WingR gcode using new white esun pla+ filament and noticed a couple of issues you can see in photo below. On the piece at top you can see a few areas where it wasn't extruded. On the lower piece you can see same thing as well as small uneven blobs. The other sides are fine. Could this be a problem with the filament I'm using or something else?
Or is this fairly normal?

Slicer used, bed/filament temp?
Ive used alot of the ESun PLA+ and nothing but perfect prints. I'm using Slic3r Prusa Edition, 0.15 Config with a mod to the bed temp to 60/60.
Yeah, its that guy... 3D Nexus

Only the gcode is provided not stl files but I imagine that slic3r was used. 230/60.

Way too hot at 230 for the filament. I use 210. Test a PRUSA logo.

Spitfire is sliced with Simplify3D (Slic3r can't do that). Higher temperature is required, there is only 1 perimeter and no infill, layers must stick together.
I use 222°C and 40% fan starting at 2nd layer, 230°C for first layers with 2 perimeters.

How can you change the temperature if we only have the gcode file?
Re: printing Spitfire slight problem?
Look for:
M140 - set temperature for heatbed and M190 - wait for heatbed to reach temperature
M104 - set temperature for nozzle and M109 - wait for nozzle to reach temperature.

Here is one part of the wing in STL: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:998525
Tune printing settings on your printer and then ask for gcodes based on your settings.
You can of course edit gcode by hand, but only some basic settings in starting gcode, I can't imagine someone could tune for example acceleration, Z-lift and similar parameters directly in gcode.
If the temperature is the only problem - just let the print begin and then change temperature by hand on LCD controller.
