We design and engineer next generation RC aircraft and 3D printed systems with a focus on innovation, optimization and real world usability.
Our mission is to create a selective collection of highly refined designs, each developed through deep R&D and continuous testing.
Since 2020, our team has specialized in FDM based product design and manufacturing, creating aircraft and functional products that can be produced on standard desktop 3D printers. Every model we release is the result of hundreds of iterations, optimized for ease of printing, efficient assembly and reliable flight performance.
Craycle is an innovation and design company dedicated to exploring the full potential of 3D printing technology. From RC aircraft to functional tools and accessories, we continue to expand our expertise to create practical, accessible and inspiring designs for makers worldwide.
We talk and evolve with our community. Every suggestion and every flight helps shape what comes next. 👉 Join the Next Model Survey to help shape our future models.
FPV Orca was our breakthrough model, the one that taught us how to blend simplicity with flight performance. Designed for effortless assembly and smooth FPV cruising, it prints fast using only 245 g of filament in about 8 hours. Compatible with PLA, PetG and LW PLA, and fits compact printers with a 150mm³ bed size. Print once, fly moothly.
Ranger is built for new pilots who want ease and stability with room to grow. It flies gently, includes a sport wing, and supports all popular FPV systems in the market. Ranger doesn't requires a carbon fiber rods. With hidden push rod tunnels, sporty agility is within reach, making it ideal for both training flights and rapid progression.
Crow Racer is the speed lovers dream, fully compatible with digital or analog FPV systems. Its robust build protects your gear during flight, handles up to 6S 2200 mAh batteries, and offers internal space for GPS and FC modules. Whether racing or flying freestyle from the Pilot View FPV cam position, this model delivers.
CraycleCub channels the iconic Piper Cub in a fully printable design that is slow, stable, and perfect for pilot view FPV. Its PLA frame, VTX cooling vents, and LW PLA compatibility make it ideal for relaxed flights in parks or open spaces. No bending steel wires for landing gear, less part, no complexity, just pure flying enjoyment.
Discover V2 is your multi role FPV explorer, spacious, modular, and designed for long range and night missions. The electronics bay adapts to all major camera types, wing tips glow with LEDs for night flying, and the setup process is straightforward. Print it once, then customize for endless aerial adventures.
Craycle Stick is the simplest way to enjoy RC flying with a fully 3D printed design and no carbon rods or fancy materials required. It offers stable, forgiving flight that is perfect for beginners yet still fun for experienced pilots. Features include modular electronics rails for FC and GPS, fully 3D printed landing gear with swappable wheels, and a design that is easy to print and assemble.
Craycle Soar Stick is the simplest way to enjoy relaxed glider flying with a fully 3D printed design and no complex setup, mixes, or exotic materials required. It delivers smooth, stable flight that is perfect for pilots who want an easy and forgiving experience, while still offering enough capability to stay enjoyable over time. Features include an efficient high aspect ratio wing, FPV ready design, optional landing gear, and a structure that is easy to print and assemble.
Thin and long parts such as columns are difficult to print on 3D printers. Especially if this piece is printed with a hollow single wall line. Model airplane control surfaces are an examples of these parts. Long wing parts also have long control surfaces. Printing these parts requires the advanced printer usage experience and is quite laborious. As a solution to this, I modeled the control surfaces together with the wing to be connected to the wing at certain intervals. After the print, the control surfaces can be easily separated from the wing. (You can watch the video by clicking the link in the image to see how it works). In this way, we are able to print control surfaces together with the wings with an error-free. Thanks to this tecnique, we don’t have to worry about control surfaces any more. You can Contact Us to exchange information on the subject.
There are many amazing wing print techniques and skeleton designs. Each Model may have different design approaches due to its flight characteristics and mechanical design, but I think the most important issue is to ensure continuous printing. Especially if in regions requiring high strength. The Ranger Mini is a training model and we developed a new technique to balance lightness and strength while designing the wing structure of this model. The printer creates columns intermittently in the wing without retractions. Thanks to this technique, the printer never retracts during wing printing. The filament flow continues throughout the print without any speed change or standstill. This ensures that the printed model is thermally stable, the layers adhere better, the model surface looks flawless. Also the printing speed can be increased. By downloading Ranger, you can examine the layers in detail on Cura.

Need a custom product design for your project?
We offer professional product design and prototyping for special projects.
How it works
We review your idea, project requirements, and references, then prepare a quote based on the time and resources needed. Once approved, we ask for a deposit of around one third of the total price and schedule the project. You will receive a progress update every Friday.
A faster option
In some cases, we can adapt one of our existing models to your project. For example, if you need a UAV built around your own product, modifying an existing platform may be faster and more affordable than starting from scratch.
Not limited to RC models
Your project does not have to be an RC aircraft. We can design different kinds of products as long as the concept is clear. The more details, references, and visuals you provide, the better the result will be. We do not develop the idea itself, we design and prototype the product that best fits your idea with strong usability and efficient manufacturability.
Manufacturing processes we know well
3D printing, carving, composite, casting, metalworking, woodworking, piping, coating, painting.
Your idea stays private
Special Project proposals are reviewed only by the Craycle Founder, and your project is not shared with third parties.
How is it priced?
Pricing is based on the time required for the project, the equipment needed, and any outsourced support if necessary. Since time is usually the main factor, modifying an existing model is often the most affordable option.
I am a mechanical design technician and product designer with four years of experience in heavy duty industrial truck design. Since 2012, I have also been deeply involved in RC models, combining hands on hobby experience with a strong interest in industrial design.
I founded Craycle to bring these two worlds together. My aim is to develop accessible, high quality 3D printed RC models and help grow a community where more people can learn, build, and enjoy aviation inspired making.
I completed my education as a Mechanical Technician and have experience in technical writing and quality control. I have a strong interest in engineering, and I joined Craycle believing its creative and innovative environment would help me grow both professionally and personally.
I first contributed to Craycle through blog writing and social media content, and I now work as Product Manager for printed kit production. I am excited to continue developing my skills in RC model aviation while contributing to the growth of the Craycle community.
