The Igneous is the T-Tail version of the Roughgen from SoarKraft.
It includes the power pod and instructions specifically for building this model this way.
It can be built as a powered glider or faster, more like a hotliner, yet big enough to have flaps and use regular gear. Power systems are very inexpensive and easy to obtain, using drone motors, ESCs, and batteries. Servos and radio gear are also required. Come join the fun and print one yourself.
Printing and building the airframe is described in this video, additional parts are required beyond the printed parts are required and listed below.
Wing available with airframe or separate.

This wing uses:
1X - carbon tube - 7mm dia x 5mm x 1000mm tube spar
2X - carbon strip - 1 x 4mm x 1000mm (.6 wide works too.. but not as stiff)

Very nice plane. I build it in LW-PLA from color fabb with flaps. 650gr flyes awesome. Thx for this plane. Greetings from german
Just built this with the 2 servo RG15 wing and absolutely love how it flies!
Awesome, take some video and post it. Would love to see
Bravo.Thenks
More than good, it's great! Soon as I get a 3d printer I'll be buying files. Thanks!
Thanks for the encouragement.... here is some for you: 3D printers are loads of fun
Just to clarify. You printed with the Polymaker lw pla with normal pla settings?
Great looking for sure, wow!
I am thinking about trying this as my first 3d print. Its not easy to get carbok fiber here in Sweden. Would appreciate a easy way to see whitch is needed for the body to.
Tried on you page, sure Im just a bit dumb... 😊
1 meter long - 2 mm rod, 1 x 4 mm strip, and 6 or 7 mm tube / rod for the wing spar depending on which wing airfoil you order. There are several sources in Europe... search "pultruded carbon"... don't get the 3K or woven stuff, not worth the extra expense.
I love the designs of your airplanes. They look so simple and look like they fly really good. I’m definitely going to design my own. How fast can this airplane go? Which one flies better, The Polymaker or PETG?
This model in PLA has gone 100+mph. Polymaker is good for lighter weight, longer flights, not speed. I still like PETG, but it is not as stiff as PLA and a little harder to print. PLA pro or tough PLA is ~ flex and strength as PETG for rough landings, easier to print.
Sure, design your own, but not as easy as it looks..... Im an aerospace engineer and I do product design as a profession, CAD work for 30 years+, and this was still one of the harder projects I have done.... but I started from scratch. I did this because nobody was designing/selling what I wanted to 3D print and fly at the time.
@@soarkraft Im actually currently studying to become an Aerospace Engineer. Over the summer I designed my own plane baised off a late WWII Spirtifre made out of foamboard and some PLA parts. I used Openvsp and Fusion to design the whole plane. It flies great and I learned a lot about CAD, 3D printing, and some aerodynamics (which can get really complicated I've found out). I've always wanted to design my own plane because new models are expensive and crashing them just isn't fun. But building your own models, if you crash them, you can just build a new one and, you can build it to fly how ever you want it to fly.
Nice. Learning all of this to make it into a flying model is great preparation for real work projects.
Are you using Y-cable for the ail and flap?
No, multi channel programming. You can probably use y-cables.. but I don't. Maybe I will break out my old Futaba Gold Box from the 80's.. my second radio ever... and use it some day, but modern radios are way better.
Have you tried installing FPV equipment in those builds ?
yes, new models coming with more room. These are really tight to get everything in... mounted the DJI on top of the wing... worked, but rough looking.
Hi what are ther throws for flaps (crow) , ailerons and elevator ? In manual looks really small. Thanks
This depends on how you built it (weight) and how you fly it, flat field landing or slope. Flaps at 45 degree down give a nice gentle glide slope, but down slow it down much. I do 90 down for max “brakes” but then need to remember to back off to 45 when it gets close to the grown so it does not flop to the ground. I only use a little up aileron for flat fields and more as a counter to the 75-90 degree flap lift increase … like 8-10 degrees. Now on the slope trying to land in lift is different, more aileron… and it depends on how heavy , how much landing space… and your skill. I’m adjusting these all the time and I have no one setting. Thanks, for bringing this up, I should probably add more info to the instructions and maybe do a video about it.
@@soarkraft ok yes it depends. But some basic settings would be welcome. I set throws by eyeballing :) we will see how it will go. Set normal rates and high rates.
@@Jure380 ... so if you are not going to give me a hint as to how you want to fly or your experience, then use dif aileron 6mm up 3mm down. Use 3mm up, 3mm down elevator. Use 45 max degree down flaps for landing.... prepare for elevator compensation as the flaps will induce some pitch..... adjust as necessary. This will be less roll and more elevator, and CG at the CG or forward a hair for first flight. I suggest playing with the PicaSim RC flight simulator if you are a novice. My planes are not crazy hard to fly, but they are not slow beginer planes. No pressure.... you can always make another one, have fun, that is what this is about.
@@soarkraft hey. I consider myself as intermediate skiled pilot. Gliders, Basic 3D flying, glow engine low wing planes, also had one pylon plane,.. so i think your stlye of flying i saw in videos on slope should not be problem at all.
no rudder on it?
Nope.... most hotlines do not have rudders... ailerons, flaps, elevator... yes
There is a cross tail version that can be built with rudder... or two servo v-tail.
@@soarkraft Thanks :) I already bought this one and now I'm printing..
Stop saying kilovolt for motor spec. It's K V. Meaning 1400k revolutions per volt.
Thanks for pointing that out... I never talk directly with people about this stuff... my wife has no idea what I do. When I see KV the words "kilo volt" come out of my mouth every time.... and its 1400 revs per volt if you want to get specific..... which I knew, but never thought too much about or why they would call it KV. I learned something today... anything else I messed up? I'm sure there is more.
Wouldn't say it's a mess up. Motor specs are very confusing when you first get into it. And even more complicated when different manufactures decide to use their own descriptions.
I am sort of new. Had a brushed geared set up years ago, stupid expensive, but no speed limit... or so it seamed. It was in a Wilco/Tiger, awesome until I crashed it. Wanted this Igneous to fly like that,... within reason.
These cheap three phase brushless motors are awesome, but it still surprises me when I am doing a fly by and hit the throttle and see the plane slow down.... 1000KV motor with a 10 x 6 folding prop on a 3S lipo... 50mph max speed and makes for a huge brake when the plane is flying at 70+mph. Working on a hotter set up, but same fit: D2836, 40A ESC, 4S 850mAh Lipo, 7 x 5.5 prop (no fold).
