Default Fusion360 Guide to Drawing Model Airplanes

Like a lot of people, I looked around for a 3D solution to drawing models for laser cutting. I had some 2D experience and wanted more accurate parts fit and quicker drawing. Learning Fusion360 was not quick and finding information on designing models with more traditional building methods was impossible. There is the guy who drew the airliner and the guy who just draws with no explanation as to why, so I took it upon myself to start a youtube channel to help people get a little understanding of how to use Fusion360 to design model airplanes.

The first video, is a simple sheet balsa hand-chuck glider that goes over some of the tools used in fusion:

And here is the first video of designing and RC Model:

If you have not used fusion360 at all, I recommend getting started with one of the many free tutorials.

If you have questions, feel free to ask.
