“Clurichaun” Build Log - A Leprechaun Inspired, 3D Printed RC Glider
The Leprechaun was designed by R A Twoomey in 1950 as a free flight glider, and was a record breaker in it's day. Now with 3D printing, I have designed a RC glider to take full advantage of 3d printer's design flexibility and print accuracy for a Leprechaun-like RC sailplane.
In this video, I'll take your from design, slice/print and assembly to show you how a 3D printed build-up design is different from a conventional balsa build-up glider.

Welcome aboard!
Very interesting project. It would be nice to share the files if possible
WIP, stay tuned ❤
Hi, This is sarah. Your content is quite a match with our brand's service and application scene. I would like to invite you to experience our 3DPrinting service and test our materials. May I ask about your interests? More in my bio
Lovely!
Nice job! It is so pretty.
Thank you! 😊
Although I totally like 3D printers, this would be an ideal glider to build using Laser-Cut balsa.
Beautiful. Looks like I might get a replacement for my sadly now tail-less Elf.
Thanks for sharing. I found motor used ?
What was the total printing time for all 3D parts?
Very nice design! Where can I download the STLs?
Thanks for your interest. Will go through another iteration before release. Thanks
Nope! Not a finished project until we get to see it fly! I never had the chance to get into the 3D printing, but I can see how it saves a lot of time and effort. I did hand cut balsa patterns...
Coming … please stay tuned
starting from now, i will be using this video instead of sleeping pills. 😴
Schöne Idee, auf jeden Fall interessant. Das Modell so aufzubauen macht wenig "Dreck" und man benötigt dafür keine extra Werkstatt - ein großer Vorteil. Holzmodelle sind da i.d.R. mit mehr Staub usw. verbunden. Aber mir fehlt ein wenig trotzdem die Begeisterung für dieses Design. Die Bespannung auf dem leicht schmelzbaren Kunststoff überzeugt mich nicht. Ich bevorzuge da doch lieber den klassischen Holzbau, jedoch mit modernen Steckverbindungen, welche der Laserschneider ermöglicht. Holz ist i.d.R. auch leichter vom Gesamtgewicht - Vor- und Nachteile gibt es aber in jeder Konstruktionsart. Zum Glück brauchen wir uns an Regeln nicht zu halten und können für uns entscheiden ob und wie wir mit modernen Methoden arbeiten und diese auch unkonventionell kombinieren!
👍
Please share the model/plans? If you have or have considered buying a Bambu 3D printer, put it on their maker site and you can earn credits good for their products.
Nice work. Eager to build one !
Beautiful design excice ! What is its wing loading ? Is this a model designed for flying thermic or slope?
Thanks for watching. The wing loading is about 6.4 oz/ft2 with PLA for slope soaring. WIP to re-design to reduce nose weight and for LW PLA. Hopefully. AUW will be well below 15 oz to qualify for thermal.
@@geode_rc Except for a conversion error, 18.3gr/dm2 this is very good for thermal flying.
@@Orchidsloverthank you ! there is room to cut more weight in tail feathers or nose weight. LW PLA could help too.
Great work! love it 🎉
Thank you! Cheers!
It´s possible to share this?
That’s the plan. Will go through another iteration of optimization/rework before release. Thanks for you interest
Lovely design. I would like to build a Grauper Dandy at some stage in the future. That was my first RC model.
Yeah, the '70s, what an era...
How did you make those decals?
@@pgtrots good question… I use color printer with clear sticker paper
Beautiful 😍 I love the use of flexing CF rod to create the fuselage shape. Do you have to worry about the covering iron melting or deforming the 3DP parts?
@@pgtrots for PLA wing, it’s manageable with practice. And I use 3M77 on wing, to make the covering relatively tight before shrink. And I do “touch & go” to avoid heat build up on PLA. For fuselage, most of the covering is contacting CF rod. Less of an issue than wing.
Some very nice ideas for using the 3D printing in a way that recognizes the old style of model construction. It did a great job of keeping the character of the original. You dd a great job of adapting this to 3D printing Some of the replies below are suggesting ways to save a few grams. I understand the need for the fairly big tail piece on the fuselage to mount the stabilizer and rudder. But perhaps a few holes in the sides to save a couple of grams in the tail? Speaking of weight what is the wing span and what was the final ready to fly weight? Any idea on how much LW-PLA would save? I can see making the bulkier parts in LW-PLA but keeping the more delicate things like the ribs and fuselage formers in PLA or even PETG? A big part of the look and magic of your design is in the open look of the design.. I gather you have not flown it yet. All the best of luck for those first flights.
@@brucematthews6417 Thanks for your blessing. Yes, I’m still waiting for maiden. As for AUW is ~400g w/o battery, but I need ~80g battery to balance. Not a well balanced design at this first try. Roughly, with redesign, I think 450g is possible with PLA. With LW PLA, may be ~350g… just may be. BTW, wing span is 130cm.
@@brucematthews6417 sorry, used the wrong account to reply
Adding holes in 3d printing often doesn't save any weight because the weight of the walls is greater than the infill. I'm sure that would be the case here.
Will check the build on rcgroups, but what covering material is this? Laurie. NZ 😊
So-lite or something equivalent
Prints on my Bambu Lab A1 Combo? Not sure if the X1 has the same plate size? Cool! Thanks. Laurie. NZ. 😊
It does!
it is recommended that when a folding prop is going to be used that the nose have a radially SYMMETRICAL shape. the use of CF in the entire length of the tail boom has increased tail-heaviness in the model's dom. distribution of mass. (at least there are no servos at the tail in this design.)
Very good point. Will go through another iteration for the nose. The CF tube is very light weight (10g per 80cm). It's common for 3D printed gliders to be tail heavy due to heavy PLA tails. This will go through rework too.
CF has a superior strength to weight ratio. I think it would make a great tail if designed with a reasonably large diameter and a sufficiently thin wall.
reality check the design of a dihedral wing SHOULD include a CENTER SECTION and dihedral brace. the latter should be the 'thing' that structurally joins the wing halves.! heavy material, such as CF or arrow shaft, is NOT an ideal material to use in a model aircraft. it is recommended that clear-grained poplar dowels be purchased at a variety/hardware store. design should not result in a relative increase in the amount of outboard-located mass in a wing. this fact should be considered, when extending a main spar to the wingtips and when designing the wingtip structure. the use of single-cable linkages and sprung control surfaces on this modern model was just dumb.
Thanks, those are very good points. And yes, there are 4 CF rods as "joiner" to connect the beefy root section together.
May I know your poplar weight per unit length?
For the size of spar used you are getting a lot more stiffness and total strength out of the carbon arrow shaft. If you did switch to a hardwood dowel it would need to be a larger diameter. Or you would need to totally change the style of spar construction. For the size of it and how this model will be used and given the 3D printed nature of the design? I think low cost light arrow shafts are pretty much an ideal option when all the factors are considered. Yes balsa and spruce can save you some grams. But at the cost of the simplicity of this style of build. So I'm going with the idea that you did fine with your choices.
nice 👏 that's gonna be something to not wastefully use Bambu's most expensive PPA-CF filament on! (almost 2x stronger than PAHT-CF in some measures)
Think about that too👍
So absolute amazing !
Hiya, are you planning to make the print files available?
@@michaelschmitz2392 yes, that’s the plan. Will take time for another major overhaul though.
@ Great!👍😊 Count me as one who will certainly built one, once you‘ll release it. Great fan of your work and love the Leprechaun. I’m currently woking on transferring a Bird of Time plan into .stl files …
Great. Thanks for you interest👍
What filament did you used?
PLA Pro for this print. LW - PLA in the future.
I can't believe you managed to cover it, Pla doesn't like heat at all😮
@@ripmax333 It's doable with practice. A few key things - (1) use low temp , fast shrink rate films such as So-Lite. (2) Use 3M77 to pre-tension the film. So, only minimum heat shrink is needed, (3) "Touch and go" during glue activation & shrink, so the heat won't build up on PLA.... It's not that hard for PLA/So-Lite. LW-PLA/Doculam is a different story :-(
@@geode_rc you sprat 3M77 on the structure and then apply the film? Or you spark the 3M77 on the film and then apply it on the structure?
@@ripmax333I spray a very light coat on the structure. Only for pretension of covering. Still need to activate glue at ~90C to glue to PLA. If on covering, will look very messy. Shrink done at ~140C, so need extra caution on shrinking.
Hello. Looks great when will the 3D print files be available? I want to try it....
👍…Pilot testing in progress. Stay tuned
@geode_rc Ok ok very much looking forward to this model. The Jart is a great aircraft with an amazing timeless design... You can put me on the 3d sub buyers list... 🤣
@@Dronrecords_svk you missed the best part …. It will be release for free download 😀

I had one of the originals..pretty tough and fast. Be interesting to see how long that 3d printed version will last on the slope in high winds on landings..🥴
Fingers crossed!
Suprb !!!
Thanks 🤗
Please create a .3MF set of files with a colour based Bambu AMS filament set. The Bambu is becoming very popular and having .3MF’s will help simplify the whole printing experience.
@@knowledgebyte yes, this 3mf release is with AMS. With build-in paint tool in Bambu Studio, multi-color decoration can be just like spray paint in real world.
Looks great! Man I want a Bambu 😪 lol
The best!
Has this been okayed buy the original designer or have you stolen the design?
Good question. My understanding is the original JART is released under CC BY NC 2.5 license (same for Jart 3DP and it’s compliant with all legal requirements). Btw, this will be a FREE 3mf release. No $$$ involved 😀 Correct me if I’m wrong, I’ll simply take it down from distributing the 3mf files.
The Jart was free to build for non commercial purposes by anyone so with that followed this is entirely proper and actually makes the Jart available to a whole new audience.
Oh wow, this is super exciting. I was dying for a 3dp Jart to come out, and you've done it. Thanks so much! This is awesome.

What you reckon will happen if you print it with the hardest tpu you can find like 60-70D hardness and try to use as little of it as possible? I know material hardness doesn't show airfoil stiffness until you print it but still I am curious of the potential weight reduction if any.
Can you do Manta BWB in dlg version ?

Thanks for posting. nice video. I'm building a balsa Manta :)
Sounds great!

After seeing the beautiful flight characteristics and your other build video I have decided this will be my winter build this year! Thanks for releasing the stl files! Keep it up!
Awesome, thank you!
This would make the ultimate powered wing. Either center mounted prop, with a slot cut in the middle of the body, or a pusher configuration from the rear. Now that I have most of my first non powered version printed, I might try to mess with the modifiers and see if it could be done.
