Fixed-Wing UAV

This video details the rapid design process for a high-efficiency wing using minimal steps in CAD.First, we import the exact coordinates of a high-efficiency airfoil from a profile generator, creating a critical closed profile line—the essential starting point. Next, we define the entire geometry by establishing simple horizontal planes at the wing root and the tip. Finally, we use the powerful Loft feature to connect these profiles, mathematically generating the complex wing surface. This efficient technique allows us to define a large, high-performance wing quickly while maintaining the precision needed for a 900 gram MTOW target.

Beginner
Learning FreeCAD reverse engineering by converting an STL file format to a solid body is an essential skill for anyone interested in product design, 3D modeling, or manufacturing. This process allows you to transform mesh-based 3D scans or downloaded models into editable, parametric solid models that can be refined, modified, or reproduced accurately. It bridges the gap between raw 3D data and professional design work.
