Hi everyone,
I have been using on shape on and off for a number of years but this deign is probably my most complex and ambitious, not that I thought it at the time I started!
A friend of mine crashed his RC plane and I offered to whip up a design and print a replacement nose section on my 3D printer. It was quite a challenging build but I got it to a place were I'm quite happy with it.
HOWEVER!
Now that I have the model looking almost perfect I had started to tweak the measurements of the rear and mid rib sections that are the basis for the lofted sections. Just to tweak the fit on the physical plane. Unfortunately if i make these sections too wide the lofts go crazy and I cannot find a way to guide the lofts back in to the right shape. Any thoughts would be really appreciated!
