Good night. I want to congratulate Cemal and the entire team that has designed the Discover, which apart from being a very beautiful model and flies fantastically well, it is the second Craycle model that I built, the previous one was the 800mm ORCA V2 wing, which also flies very well. I have printed the 2 models on an Artillery Genius printer in PLA PoliAir 1.0 which is a little stronger than normal PLA, I plan to print another Discover in PLA LW which will be lighter

I am glad you are satisfied with our models!

Amazing work from Craycle as usual, such a high quality model which prints so fast and excellent quality on the Bambu X1-Carbon , no need to mess with any settings just follow the guide that comes with the model change the walls and set the bottom and top layers and let the magic happen. Also support is excellent when i’ve needed help they get back to you in a timely manner. 3rd plane ive bought from here and will happily buy future releases when they come out. For now i’m going to enjoy flying my Discovery and Orca

Thank you for your interest in Craycle models! I appreciate that you shared your Bambu X1 experience, a lot of customers use Bambu printers these days.

Discovery first impressions. I had no problem downloading the files and also the Cura profile which installed without any issues (yes I am using 4.13.1and there are still some small glitches in the slicing). The first thing I do is import the STL’s into Fusion 360 and convert them to solids for a detailed look at how they were built. I really like that an effort has been made to design for vase mode slicing, lighter, cleaner, faster. A lot of work has gone into this model and there are some clever features I haven’t seen before. The electronics mounting rails (the screw holes are a cool little feature) and mounting accessories are great also the modular camera/transmitter nose parts. The undercarriage is also a really practical option no one else seems to do. I am interested to see how the lighting system works out and it is nicely integrated into the design. My only criticism with the design is the flat plate tail surfaces, I would rather see an airfoil on these. SD8020 with thickened trailing edge is my go to for them. The associated manual and videos are really good and complete a really impressive package. I will probably build 2 one with standard PLA and one with LW PLA

As a designer, I am really glad to read all these nice words and I am happy that you find details that I have worked on the model.
Tail’s form is about the view. I wanted to see this tail as flat as possible. It wasn’t possible to get this view with an airfoil form (I tried). I made a smooth transition on the edges to ensure efficiency.
You can see the lighting system now on Youtube: https://youtu.be/qqUEWsdUBsg
I would love to see your work in our Facebook Craycle Crafter group.

Hi, Do You have model for Landing Gear Option 2?
Cemal OZCELIK (store manager) –
Hi, Landing Gear option 2 is a steel wire. You can get it CNC machine bended and coated landing gear from us: https://craycle.com/product/craycle-landing-gear-2-mm/
Or you can bend yourself using a 2 mm steel wire.

its my first 3d plane build, and I do have a custom core-0xy printer, and still its easy to print, and the support provided for doubts on printing it was really appreciated, also the profiles of cura works well. i have completed my prints and waiting for few electronics, and let me tell you its really gr8 looking, it actually came out better than i thought. If u r thinking of getting it for a first 3d plane let me tell u it worked good of me so be assured.

This model flies incredibly well and assembly is a breeze, with all the parts basically snapping together.
With my setup of 3s 4400amh battery I get around 1 hour flight, and the good thing is it can handle more battery capacity.
The electronics trays are really easy to access and customize to your liking.
This is a well thought out design and is very versatile. Would recommend if you are looking for a long range UAV or just for flying FPV
Cemal OZCELIK (store manager) –
Thank you, mate! 3s 4400mAh and 1-hour flight is really a good result.
