Default My first rc model

Hi,

starting to learn AC3D already several months ago, I finally could finish a project: This is a glider for the rc simulation aerofly by Ipacs. I still try to improve modelling of canopies and cockpits, but I enjoy AC3D very much.

See also a screenshot within the simulation, of course all deflection surfaces are fully functioning.

Regards

That's remarkable for a first model! I wish I started off making models that good.

Thanks for your kind words.
I tried to read as many information as possible, the whole manual and all the info posted here in the forum.

I always find it very helpful, to see the surface lines of the posted models to get an impression how it was done.

Great feedback, many thanks to you!

Watching Lisa's sea horse movie I still have to learn a lot.
