Default 3D Modelling

Hi all...

Just wanted to show off one of my latest "modeling" projects. The plane is a 1:5 scale Supermarine Seafang F.32.
Now if I could only get my hands on a 5-axis CNC machine...

In case you wonder...no it is not finished... many details/modifications left to do.

Joo, men jeg er jo oppe at tegne 37% ultimate. Hvad for en motor skal den seafang have?

Aner det ikke... får sikkert aldrig bygget den...
Men det skulle vel være noget i retning af en G-62 med gearing så den kan svinge 2 modsat roterende skala 3-bladede propeller...
Først skal Bjarne og undertegnede ha´ vores nye trækfly færdig, og derefter står der en Yak-3 eller LA-5FN på programmet til min gearede Bully (hvis jeg kan få det til at virke...)

Pelle, I've got the CAD drawings about half done for a 1/5 scale Spiteful. Even got the foam wing cores cut for it. However, it has been put on the back burner for the time being. A great looking airplane, best of luck with it.

One of the things that has always bothered me about the Spiteful/Seafang is the lack of accurate 3-views, but I finally found some good drawings on a Russian web page, and it´s from those drawings I made the 3D model. All the other 3-views I have don't look anything like the real plane.

What airfoil are you using for your model? I know that the full size used a laminar Supermarine 371-I / 371-II, but I have not been able to find the coordinates anywhere, nor any other info about the airfoil.

All my drawings show a 3-4° incidence. Seems like a lot but then again according to my drawings the tail plane sits at a 1.5° positive incidence plus about 1.5° down thrust on the engine... Maybe that will even out some of the incidence of the main wing?

What engine do you intend to power your model with?

Would you be interested in exchanging reference material/cad drawings/3-views?

Tinus, I traced the airfoil off of my three views as I could not find the coordinates for the Supermarine airfoil anywhere either. Hopefully it will work to my satisfaction. I am going to draw the plans to accept a Moki 1.8 engine for power. I'd be happy to share what I have on the airplane although it is not a great deal.
